Read the full account

On 20 December 2024 the President published the constitutional organic-simplification decree. INAI, COFECE, IFT, CONEVAL, CRE, CNH and Mejoredu were to be folded into the executive once secondary laws sat. She had said INAI had no sense as an autonomous body.

Context

Senate approval 28 November sat as parent. Secondary laws in March 2025 completed INAI’s practical end. She did not sit as every state congress.

Women’s Secretariat 28 November is a different administrative reform. Energy implementing laws March 2025 are a child.

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.

Why it matters

The path is democratic resilience and personal-data protection: a completed removal of the autonomous transparency regulator.

What the sources establish

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

Established: 20 December 2024 DOF publication of the organic-simplification decree.

Not established: that every later information request thereby failed that hour, or a unique later CPI coefficient.

She promulgated. The Secretariat of Anticorruption later absorbed named functions.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies Sheinbaum publishes the organic-simplification decree dissolving INAI and other autonomous bodies, not a later speech about Sheinbaum publishes the organic-simplification decree dissolving INAI and other autonomous bodies.

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 and state legislatures voted. She promulgated. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series.
