Sheinbaum calls on all politicians to govern with simplicity and humility

Claudia Sheinbaum said her appeal for simplicity and honesty was not aimed at one particular politician. It applied to every official in Morena and in all other parties, she said, as she urged those seeking public office to remain close to the people.

“

Everyone was included. Government must be conducted with humility and simplicity, without extravagance, close to the people. That is what people want, and that is how we should behave.

“Everyone was included. Government must be conducted with humility and simplicity, without extravagance, close to the people. That is what people want, and that is how we should behave,” Sheinbaum said at her morning press conference on Sept. 2.

The discussion included officials who travel in armored vehicles with escorts, visit expensive restaurants and buy bottles of wine, as well as female officials who record trips to different parts of the world. Sheinbaum said illegal conduct should be investigated, while voters could pass judgment on behavior that did not break the law.

“

It depends on each person. If there is something illegal, it should be investigated. If not, it is a matter for each person, and the people judge each person.

“It depends on each person,” she said. “If there is something illegal, it should be investigated. If not, it is a matter for each person, and the people judge each person. Whoever does not follow these principles can also be punished by the people electorally or in another way.”

Public servants have an obligation to behave with deep responsibility, but at the same time with simplicity and humility.

Sheinbaum made the appeal during her Second Government Report, where she called for unity and said public servants must act with deep responsibility, simplicity and humility. She accused governments before the Fourth Transformation of using public money for “extravagance and luxuries” and governing for only a few. “That ended with the arrival of the Fourth Transformation,” she said, adding that the approach should continue.

For many years, while millions of Mexican women and men worked every day to get ahead, the government moved away from the people, their needs and their reality. Public resources were used for extravagance and luxuries, and government served only a few. That ended with the arrival of the Fourth Transformation.
