Mexican regional updates: Hidalgo security and Guerrero administrative reform

In Hidalgo, Secretary of Government Guillermo Olivares Reyna reported during a congressional appearance that the state has reached ninth place in the Mexico 2026 Peace Index and eighth in security perception. Olivares Reyna noted that over 700 cases have been addressed through Welfare and Peace Approach Tables, emphasizing a policy of dialogue and direct community engagement directed by Governor Julio Menchaca Salazar.

In Guerrero, Deputy Jhobanny Jiménez Mendoza has proposed a reform to the Organic Law of the State Public Administration. The proposal aims to establish a model for the professionalization, permanent training, and mandatory certification of state public servants in leadership roles, such as secretaries and directors, to ensure technical competence aligns with their institutional functions.
