Campeche fishermen protests

Overview

In Campeche, Mexico, approximately 360 deep-sea fishermen staged protests at the Government Palace to demand increased government subsidies. Specifically, they requested that support payments for fishing bans and low catch periods be raised from 7,500 to 15,000 pesos, and that life insurance coverage be increased from 50,000 to 500,000 pesos.

Beyond financial demands, the protesters denounced administrative irregularities, including the unnotified demolition of structures on the malecón. Fishing leaders have filed appeals with federal and human rights agencies to investigate the actions of Semarnat and Profepa. Additionally, organizers raised concerns regarding the transparency of fuel subsidies, alleging that resources intended for cooperatives in Champotón and Seybaplaya are being diverted to official government vehicles.
