On 13 January 2025 President Sheinbaum launched Plan México, an industrial-policy programme to raise national content, cut the China goods deficit, attract investment, and create jobs, one week before Donald Trump’s second inauguration.

Context

USMCA 2026 review sat as neighbour weather. Neighbouring 3 February tariff pause is a child. She did not write a US tariff.

Oath 1 October 2024 is the parent. 3 February 2025 Guard-for-tariff pause is 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 industrial-policy activism: a completed nearshoring-and-substitution plan launch under US tariff threat.

What the sources establish

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

Established: 13 January 2025 Plan México presentation, independently reported.

Ebrard’s Economy secretariat and Finance share implementation. Firms decide capex.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies Sheinbaum launches Plan México one week before Trump’s inauguration, not a later speech about Sheinbaum launches Plan México one week before Trump’s inauguration.

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 She presented the plan. Ebrard’s Economy secretariat and Finance share implementation. Firms decide capex. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series.
