Morelia, Michoacán.- In giving his Second Legislative Report, the Federal Deputy Carlos Torres Piña, presented the route to the 4T in Michoacán, while declaring himself a good soldier of the Fourth Transformation, ready to assume the tasks that the people of the state ask him, with the aim of abandoning the laggard and beginning the transformation that puts the entity at the forefront of the states that set the tone in Mexico.
In the exercise of accountability, before Municipal Presidents, Federal and Local Deputies, as well as social leaders – the report was also broadcast live through social networks in conjunction with media and through different digital platforms by members of the 300 Social Committees for Transformation -, stressed that the triumph and promotion of Andrés Manuel López Obrador , represents a break with traditional politics, this is an unprecedented process for Mexico. The proposal of the Fourth Transformation marks the beginning of a change, where people’s hope is set on a leader.
He stated that these conditions must be exploited so that the entity, begins the path to a better future and “my commitment to AMLO and Morena is that Michoacán enters the 4th transformation”, which is why he assured that “I am not going to rest and I am already visiting all my friends and colleagues”.
As a result, he reported that a week ago he began the formation of 300 Social Committees for Transformation in all corners of Michoacán and is intended to form 5 thousand in this year.
Before making a tight recount of a year’s legislative activity, the legislator stressed that the current Chamber of Deputies is historic because it ended a long cycle of passage of laws that affected people, and began a period to create a new legal framework that aims to shield citizens from abrupt changes in economic and social policy.
He said the foundations for the construction of a new homeland had already been laid. And this change is unstoppable and it is already virtually impossible to return to the time of grievances that the neoliberal period meant.
The Members of us who support the President of the Republic, he said, have been receptive and sensitive to legislating vertically, for that reason it was built together with a group of fellow legislators from Morena, the PES, PVEM and the PT, a majority to pass the necessary laws for Mexico, accompanying the President in the task of cleaning up public life in Mexico.
In line with the above, 48 ordinate sessions were held in the Chamber of Deputies in two sessions and three extraordinary sessions, where 184 votes were held, in favour of 137 issues.
Highlight constitutional reform for the revocation of the mandate and popular consultation, the reform to prohibit tax forgiveness, the reform to strengthen the issue of remuneration of senior officials, the reform to combat false billing, the reform that raises to constitutional rank social programs, the creation of the Institute to Return to the People the Stolen, the Republican Austerity Act , new food and beverage labelling, secondary education laws, amnesty law, the Account Freeze and Block Act, the Federation Income Act and the Federation Egress Budget Bill for 2020.
One of the most important reforms in times of digital communications is the Olimpia Law, which was established by the Decree adding a fraction VI to article 6 of the General Law on Access of Women to a Life Free from Violence, thereby adding the figure of digital violence.
It was proposed to create a National Health System for Welfare, the decree was voted on for the election of the election counselors of the General Council of the National Electoral Institute, the initiative to facilitate the purchase of medical equipment and medicines abroad to address the health emergency of the Covid-19. In the Housing Commission that we chaired, 17 opinions were submitted, 8 were adopted.
This Second Report is given in the context of a global pandemic and in Mexico we do not yet have a full account of damage because the virus continues to spread, but this ballast will result in pressing needs for the Mexican State and we are convinced that new economic measures and more austerity will be required to overcome the economic and health emergency, so we believe that the Federal Executive , as it has, it will send to the Legislative, a Draft Revenue Bill and a draft Budget of Egress, realistic and in accordance with the new circumstances and needs of the country. In that cwith that vision, from the Chamber of Deputies we are going to support President Andrés Manuel López Obrador.
