Gabriela Jiménez seeks Morena role in Azcapotzalco

Federal deputy Gabriela Jiménez announced she will seek a Morena role in Azcapotzalco by registering for the party’s internal selection process.

The role is to coordinate the Committees for the Defense of Transformation and National Sovereignty in the borough.

She said she would follow the process rules and work to build unity in the area.

Jiménez said she supports the projects of President Claudia Sheinbaum and Mexico City government head Clara Brugada, and wants equality and family well-being at the centre of the agenda.

She cited work across Azcapotzalco’s 112 neighbourhoods, including efforts on parks, housing areas and street maintenance.

She also said free or low-cost campaigns provided more than 700 pairs of glasses and donated over 150 mobility aids.

Jiménez said she would bring her national security training to the role and promote prevention, including through large emergency drills; no further steps in the selection process were specified.
