Legislative and political activities across Latin America continue to focus on administrative reforms, economic development, and social protections. In Mexico, President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo has addressed the long-term burden of the Fobaproa debt, noting that the country pays 50 billion pesos every two years to the IPAB. Local efforts include the Huixquilucan City Council’s renewal of its Municipal Honorary Selection Commission for the Anti-Corruption System; additionally, the Congress of the Union recently held a session recognizing Charrería as a national cultural expression. In Bolivia, the Chamber of Deputies in Santa Cruz has approved priority projects including a new oncology hospital and road expansions near Viru Viru airport. In Argentina, legislative focus remains on transparency, local governance, and sector-specific reforms. Senate commissions are reviewing modifications to a Transparency and Public Ethics bill, while debates continue regarding the Central Bank’s organic charter. Recent provincial developments include Minister Manuel Troncoso’s promotion of a Labor Procedural Code reform in Entre Ríos to reduce litigation through specialized medical experts, and efforts by national deputies to reduce the VAT on fresh eggs from 21% to 10.5%. In Misiones, Deputy Santiago Koch is advocating for electoral reform, while in Catamarca, Deputy Tiago Puente is seeking tax relief for small businesses; additionally, the Catamarca Senate granted preliminary approval to a project creating a Multisectoral Table for the Prevention and Management of Integral Risk. In La Pampa, Governor Sergio Ziliotto has submitted a rural land law project to the Legislature following a Supreme Court ruling. The proposal seeks to establish a provincial regulatory framework that includes an absolute ban on the sale of lands containing strategic natural resources—such as rivers, aquifers, and native forests—to foreign entities, while capping foreign land ownership at 15% provincially.
