Sonora State Congress legislative and oversight activities

Overview

In Sonora, the State Congress has engaged in various oversight and legislative activities. Initially, Internal Control Bodies from six autonomous organizations, including the State Human Rights Commission and the State Attorney General’s Office, submitted annual reports to the Fiscalization Commission to facilitate reviews of transparency and accountability.

Following these administrative submissions, the State Congress moved toward legislative initiatives focused on press freedom. Through the ‘Periodistas libres y protegidos’ forum, proposals were introduced to reform the State Political Constitution to recognize journalism as a strategic profession and to amend the Penal Code to include the crime of intimidation against journalists.
