Mexico's Chamber of Deputies to debate 2027 federal budget

Mexico's Chamber of Deputies is set to begin debating the 2027 federal budget on Monday at 3 p.m.

Chamber president Raúl Bolaños Cacho Cué said preparations were under way at the legislature in San Lázaro.

The plan covers 10.636 trillion pesos in government spending across areas including education, health and security.

The Chamber of Deputies has sole constitutional authority to discuss the budget, according to Bolaños.

He urged lawmakers to focus on arguments and avoid insults, and said he was working with party leaders to build agreements.

Bolaños called for a serious, responsible debate and asked lawmakers to set electoral competition aside for the week.

The debate is due to start in the chamber's plenary, where deputies will discuss the proposed spending plan.
