Nuevo León Governor Samuel García faces impeachment push as Morena coordinator quits

State Deputy Mario Soto, the coordinator of the Morena caucus in the Nuevo León Congress, resigned after missing a crucial session that threatened the quorum needed to start the impeachment process against Governor Samuel García. The impeachment, driven by allegations of embezzlement, diversion of public resources and illicit enrichment, advanced when the PRI and PAN parties voted in favor, allowing the procedure to move forward.

National Morena leader Ariadna Montiel, speaking in Monterrey, reiterated the party's anti‑corruption stance but declined to take a definitive position on the pending impeachment. She emphasized internal party mechanisms for handling alleged misconduct and noted differing opinions within Morena's ranks. The political debate continues in the state legislature as parties assess the governor's future and internal party dynamics evolve.
