What’s happening now?
In the past week the president announced a boost to social programs aimed at rural families. The plan adds 1.2 billion pesos for school meals and health clinics in the poorest states.

On the security front, the president met with top generals to discuss a new strategy against organized crime along the northern border. He promised faster response times and better equipment for local police forces. Critics say the plan needs clearer funding, but supporters argue it’s a step toward safer neighborhoods.
