Sheinbaum: in June the people decided on the integration of Congress

In her first speech as president-elect of the United Mexican States, Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo recognized the heroines of generations and generations who fought so that for the first time a woman could reach this highest position.

In front of the electoral magistrates and the ministers of the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation, he stressed that on June 2 the people also voted for a true justice system, which is equal for all Mexicans. A system that also includes the separation between economic power and the power of justice, a state of law.

In the midst of a judicial reform in the making, Sheinbaum warned that, “for this reason, we should not fear democracy; Juárez said: ‘democracy is the destiny of humanity, freedom, its indestructible arm.’”

He did have an explicit message for his hosts, the judges of the Electoral Tribunal of the Judicial Branch of the Federation (TEPJF), before whom he said – from the room where the composition of both chambers of the Congress of the Union will be defined in the coming days – that on June 2 the people also expressed their will for the composition of the Legislature.

And the Constitution is clear regarding the appointment of legislators, by majority and proportional representation; I am convinced that the heads of the Judicial Branch in electoral matters are well versed in this matter, because they have acted in this way in past elections and they will also know how to respect the Constitution, the laws and the will of the people.

Minutes earlier, in a solemn session, the plenary session of the upper chamber of the TEPJF gave her the certificate to exercise the position of the first female president of Mexico, from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2030.

At the beginning of her speech, she highlighted that it is the first time in 200 years of the Republic that a woman has received the recognition of being president-elect. “President, with an ‘A’. As I have said on other occasions, I do not assume it as an individual triumph or as a personal effort; today, already marked in the history of Mexico, I did not arrive alone, we all arrived.”

In this way, he highlighted the character historic and unprecedented of the result of the election, in which Our movement obtained 35 million 924 thousand 519 votes, which represents 59.76 percent of the total; 32 points above the second place.

More than a hundred special guests listened attentively to her; in the front rows, family members and members of the current and future cabinet; then, legislators, leaders of the parties that nominated her and electoral advisers.

He noted that he takes on this responsibility nourished of collective effort, and especially the strength that comes from our ancestors, our mothers, our daughters and our granddaughters..

He stressed the importance of listen to the messages of the June 2 election and stated that he will lead an honest government, with results, with love for the country, because the majority of citizens do not want the return of the government of arrogance, influence peddling, corruption and privileges. The mandate is clear: to continue and advance with the Fourth Transformation of public life in Mexico, which began in 2018 under President Andrés Manuel López Obrador..

Offered continue building a free Mexico, at peace, with rights, fraternal, sovereign, democratic and fair; a government that does not repressThe people, he added, chose the welfare state, from the cradle to the grave, to continue the moral economy and not return to the neoliberal system.

He reiterated his campaign promises to achieve a Mexico at peace. “We will do it with strategy, the war against the people will not return.” narcowe will continue building peace with justice; a fraternal Mexico.”

Likewise, may the people of Mexico never again be treated with contempt, classism, racism, or women with machismo, because Our roots and our destiny are in brotherhood, humanism; the mandate is not to stray from the sovereignty of the people, which must always be above groups or individuals, no matter how powerful they may seem.

He continued with the theme of justice and promised to govern with honesty and responsibility, respecting the independence of the powers. “No one should fear anything; on the contrary, the future is promising… We will rise to the occasion.”

I make the commitment not to disappoint and to put all my effort, my knowledge, my heart, my effort, my will and even my life itself to serve my country and my people. Long live Mexico.he said.

Earlier, the president of the TEPJF, Monica Soto, said that the glass ceiling has been broken, takes the veil off the patriarchy y Mexico has come off the rubbery floor.

In a 26-minute message, the judge highlighted the struggle for the inclusion of women in the country’s public life, dating back more than 100 years, when feminist suffrage was demanded. In her speech, she regretted the murders of candidates in this electoral process.
