On 18 March 2025, the anniversary of the 1938 oil expropriation, Sheinbaum signed implementing energy legislation: eight new statutes and amendments creating a National Energy Commission inside SENER and abolishing the autonomous CRE and CNH. The Electricity Sector Law required at least 54 percent of injected energy from CFE plants.

Context

31 October 2024 constitutional reclassification sat as parent. Neighbouring Plan México is industrial weather. She did not sit as every CFE plant manager.

31 October 2024 reclassification is the parent. Plan México January 2025 is a neighbour industrial plan.

The President of Mexico heads the federal executive, promulgates laws Congress sends, and commands the armed forces. She does not write an INE tally, a SCJN judgment, a US tariff schedule, or a cartel killing by herself. Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s earlier statutes are not her later decrees unless she re-enacted them. A disappearance print is not a unique due-process coefficient.

What the sources establish

Presidency of Mexico carries the official instrument or communique. DOF records the same dated act independently.

Established: 18 March 2025 signing of the implementing package, independently placed on the expropriation anniversary.

Not established: a unique later kWh or import-gas coefficient from that Tuesday.

She signed. SENER, CFE, and Pemex implement.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies Sheinbaum signs implementing energy statutes abolishing CRE and CNH, not a later speech about Sheinbaum signs implementing energy statutes abolishing CRE and CNH.

Co-authors and later implementers named in Context remain on the file. If a later repeal, stay, or successor instrument exists, it needs its own date and its own row. The contribution described on this Person row is limited to Congress sent the package. She signed. SENER, CFE, and Pemex implement. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series.
