Ramírez was in front. As Secretary General Lourdes Paz. Emiliano Álvarez as Secretary of Finance. Elena Segura, secretary of Women, and at the head of the State Council was the mayor in Gustavo A. Madero, Francisco Chiguil.
The complete integration of the State Executive Committee remained with Ana María Rodríguez; in Organization, in Education, Training and Political Training, Iram Pérez; in Communication, Areli Castillo; in Indigenous and Peasant Affairs, Ricardo Salgado; in Sexual Diversity, Irma Vázquez Blacio, and in Art and Culture, Martín Rosales.
Ramírez was for a year director of Social Communication of the city government, a position in which he had at his disposal the resources destined for advertising in the country’s capital; he resigned on August 23 to prepare to lead Morena in the capital.
In an interview, he ruled out that his task is to prop up Sheinbaum for the 2024 presidential candidacy.
“Of course we are with Claudia Sheinbaum, of course we are with Andrés Manuel López Obrador, that is the task of a party, to accompany their governments. We will accompany Marcelo Ebrard, who is our Foreign Minister, and Adán Augusto, who is our Secretary of the Interior”, he said.
But that does not mean, he assured, that the leadership aims to promote Sheinbaum to Morena’s presidential candidacy for 2024.
“We are an institutional representation, nothing that the currents, the groupism, are going to accompany the governments emanating from our movement,” he assured.
“This leadership is 100% Morena and is going to accompany the head of government in the transformation project and President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, that is what he is thinking about,” he insisted.

On the way to the 2024 elections, the challenge of “painting the icing” was imposed on the city again, since in 2021 Morena lost the mayoralties of Azcapotzalco, Miguel Hidalgo, Cuauhtémoc, Álvaro Obregón, Cuajimalpa, Magdalena Contreras, Tlalpan and Coyoacán at the hands of the opposition, in addition to Benito Juárez, who has never governed.
“In 2023 what we are going to do is knock on doors so that people come with Morena,” he explained, outlining his plan in three axes: “inform, raise awareness and mobilize to make the country’s capital dress again cherry on top of the 2024 elections”.
Ramírez is a sociologist from the Autonomous Metropolitan University (UAM) Xochimilco and affirmed that he began his political interest as a result of López Obrador’s impeachment in 2004, when he was a high school student at the time.
