Moratorium is not the same as suspension.
Although there are those who try to make believe that the federal congressmen and women who are members of the Va por México legislative alliance are renouncing our parliamentary work by declaring the Constitutional Moratorium, the truth is that those who maintain this falsehood ignore the meaning of moratorium, which is synonymous with term, of time, and it is precisely what the opposition in this country needs to thoroughly and comprehensively analyze the proposals that the group in power puts forward for constitutional reform.
It is not a question of hindering or bureaucratizing, but of defending the authentic national interests by not allowing the mistake of turning the National Guard into a military entity and that, notwithstanding the magnificent accounts that the National Electoral Institute (INE) has delivered to Mexicans when organizing and qualifying elections, the institution most appreciated and recognized by the Mexican people is intended to disappear.
Hence the moratorium: to never again allow the Executive to impose itself on the Legislative and pretend that its projects are approved fast track, regardless of the seriousness and repercussions of its content.
It seems that the concept of democracy that people in power have is a system dominated by their decisions, with docile opponents and subject to their power and with complacency to everything that comes to mind. But that already exists in other countries and it is not democracy, but tyranny.
Hence, it is not a whim or closedness of Va por México, but rather a demand for respect for the Federal Legislative Power, which is a faithful representation of national sovereignty and in which, being made up of women and men of diverse origins and training, they must be the dialogue, debate and analysis are the true working tools.
No one stops the Congress of the Union, because its very essence is to function as a sounding board in which all national and some local issues come to its tribunes to be analyzed, denounced and provide elements of solutions that avoid human pain and promote development, social justice, democracy and growth.
It is not the “Va por México” alliance that seeks to stop the activity of the Mexican Congress, but rather those who, since September 1, 2018, came to the Federal Legislative Power to abide by the will of a person, ignoring their constituents and approving all presidential proposals. without saying anything and without correcting.
Today, with the health, insecurity, inflation, poverty and hunger pandemics, Morena is showing that she does not know how to govern. And for this reason, the Va por México alliance will not allow it to continue destroying Mexico’s economy, its institutions and its democratic regime.
