Mexico City. The Chamber of Deputies today approved the appointment of the presidents of 20 commissions, including the Justice Commission, which must be installed shortly to process the two secondary reforms that the Senate will approve to regulate the extraordinary election of judges, magistrates and ministers.
In an ordinary session that began more than hours late, while the different parliamentary groups negotiated the distribution of commissions in the Political Coordination Board, the first agreement was announced.
Morena reserved the most relevant commissions in the chamber and handed over to the PVEM the Supervision of the Superior Audit of the Federation, which will be chaired by Javier Octavio Herrera (PVEM), son of the former governor of Veracruz, Fidel Herrera Beltrán.
This is a position usually led by the opposition.
The Finance and Budget commissions will be chaired by deputies from Morena, with Merilyn Gómez and Carlos Ulloa Pérez, respectively. Leonel Godoy Rangel will chair the Constitutional Points meeting.
It was also determined that the Jurisdictional Commission – among its members is the Investigative Section in charge of resolving violations – be chaired by Hugo Eric Flores Cervantes, founder of the defunct Social Encounter Party, which is now in Morena.
Likewise, the Justice Committee will be chaired by Julio César Moreno Rivera (Morena), who in the previous legislature could not preside over the Constitutional Points Committee, because he had just joined the cherry ranks after leaving the PRD. The majority deputies then objected that he had been a critic of former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador and President Claudia Sheinbaum, when she was head of the Capital Government.
The agreement includes that the Southern Border Affairs Commission be led by Tey Mollinedo from Tabasco; Immigration Issues by Marcela Guerra (PRI); Welfare, by Ana Karina Rojo, (PT), National Defense, retired General Luis Arturo Oliver (Morena), and Sports by racquetball player Paola Longoria (MC).
Likewise, the heads of Human Rights were appointed, Yoloczin Domínguez (Morena); Rural, Agricultural Development and Conservation and Food Self-sufficiency, PRI member Leticia Barrera; Economy, trade and competitiveness, PAN member Miguel Ángel Salim; Gender Equality, Anais Mirian Burgos (Morena); and Energía Rocío Abreu, who was close to PRI leader Alejandro Moreno Cárdenas and is now active in Morena.
Pedro Vázquez, PT deputy, was appointed president of the Foreign Relations Commission, which his party retains.
The presidencies of the Navy commissions were also determined, with Admiral Humberto Coss y León (Morena); Environment and Natural Resources, by Gabriela Benavides Cobos (PVEM); and Tania Palacios (PAN), Tourism.
After the agreement was presented to the plenary session, the president of the Board of Directors, Sergio Gutiérrez Luna, called on the Justice Commission to be installed “as soon as possible.”
The above, because this commission will be in charge of reviewing the minutes of the Senate to modify the general laws of Electoral Institutions and Procedures and the Media Challenge System in electoral matters.
