For the first time, the board of directors of the State Congress is chaired by a Mayan-speaking woman and also from a left-wing party, Neida Araceli Pat Dzul, a deputy from Morena, who was committed by the installing board to fulfill her position, and immediately did the same with her colleagues from the new legislature.
Wilmer Monforte Marfil, the new president of the Governing Board of Congress, at the end of the ceremony said that they will begin their functions today Sunday with a job where plurality and the inclusion of all political forces will always prevail.
This was seen in his first board of directors whose president is his fellow Morena member, but the secretaries are: one from the PAN and another from the PT.
As has rarely been seen in the history of Congress, yesterday the main board was adorned with the embroidered hipil and rebozo that Neida Pat wore when assuming the presidency of the first board of directors of the new LXIV Legislature.
The Legislature received the corresponding documentation for the safekeeping of the assets of the LXIII Legislature from Víctor Hugo Lozano Poveda, a PAN deputy and president of the Governing Board of the Legislative Branch, who yesterday concluded his term.
According to the protocol in these cases, the ceremony was presided over by the Installation Commission, headed by Lozano Poveda.
Lozano received Monforte Marfil’s proposal to appoint Neida Pat as president of the first board of directors of Congress, valid until Sunday, December 15, when the first ordinary session period will conclude.
