Executive Driven Exercises

Since 2018, when he won the Presidency, Andrés Manuel López Obrador has called nine citizen consultations. As president-elect, on the construction of the new airport in Mexico City and the 10 priority projects of his government, including the Mayan Train, the interoceanic railway in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec and the refinery in Dos Bocas, Tabasco. So far in his six-year term, he has consulted the indigenous peoples of Oaxaca and Veracruz about the Isthmus of Tehuantepec project; to the population of Quintana Roo, Tabasco, Campeche, Chiapas and Yucatán around the Mayan Train, and in Baja California for the construction of a Constellation Brands brewery plant in the entity. There were also consultations about the Dos Bocas refinery and, organized by the INE, about the trial of former presidents of the neoliberal period and revocation of the mandate, which did not reach enough votes to be binding.
