Sheinbaum advances security, health, and economic plans

Overview

President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo continues to advance her administration’s priorities in security, healthcare, and economic stability. During her ‘Honestidad y Resultados’ tour, she reported a reduction in violence in Guanajuato, noting daily homicide victims dropped from 12.7 in February 2025 to 3.2 in August 2026. In Morelos, she agreed to a security plan to strengthen state and municipal corporations through increased federal deployment.

In the healthcare sector, Sheinbaum has launched a modernization plan for the IMSS, ISSSTE, and IMSS-Bienestar to eliminate bureaucratic hurdles and automate inventory management. To address critical deficiencies, she and IMSS Director Zoé Robledo announced an emergency 120-day program running from late October 2026 through February 2027. This 11,745 million peso initiative aims to perform 31,700 additional surgeries, hire 2,500 specialists, and provide an 8% salary increase for approximately 500,000 workers. The program also includes a 3,140 million peso investment to provide permanent status to 10,939 employees. To modernize infrastructure, the institute will also purchase 100 high-tech medical devices and approximately 18,000 new hospital beds and stretchers.

However, the administration faces immediate challenges. In October 2026, IMSS workers and retirees scheduled large-scale protests in Mexico City, demanding a 10% salary increase rather than the proposed 6.8%, while calling for better working conditions and improved supplies. Simultaneously, the Ministry of Health acknowledged persistent medicine shortages caused by supplier non-compliance and illegal drug diversion. To combat this, the government plans to implement digital traceability for high-cost medicines and prioritize direct purchases from manufacturers to save an estimated 70 billion pesos between 2025 and 2028.
