Claudia Sheinbaum and Andrés Manuel López Obrador met at the National Palace.

The virtual president-elect, Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo, is confident that in September —when the work of the next Legislature begins— five constitutional reforms of special interest to her can be approved: the ISSTE law, granting pensions to women aged 60 to 64, universal scholarships for all students of public basic education, non-reelection and the Reform to the Judicial Branch.

“The idea is that the reforms are approved in September, these that we are proposing will be the first, or at least in the first months,” she said at a press conference from the National Palace, after meeting privately with President Andrés Manuel López Obrador.

In the case of the reform to the Judicial Branch—which is part of the package that President López Obrador sent to Congress last February—, she said she was open to dialogue with all sectors to discuss it and make it known, including meeting with the workers of that power.

From this historic venue, the winner of the last presidential election also stated that she is not worried about the “volatility” that the peso has had in recent days. She assured that the current mandate will provide “healthy finances and a strengthened economy.”

Sheinbaum announced that next week she will announce her cabinet, thus formally beginning the transition process.

When asked about the reform of autonomous organizations, Sheinbaum Pardo said that this will be discussed later.
