Arcismo resigned committees in favor of its allies to achieve a majority in sessions

From 24 committees that he chaired in 2023, archism dropped to 18 and he resigned the remaining six in favor of his eventual allies dissidents from opposition parties such as Creo and Comunidad Ciudadana (CC) whose deputies saw significant progress.

“Citizen Community – the organic deputies – kept the spaces it had, but Notice that it already has more committees, those are the dissidents; The same thing happens in Creo, they have more committee secretariats, which are the ones that have a budget and can have staff,” explained a member of the board headed by arcist Omar Yujra.

A comparison made between the 2023 and 2024 committee distribution allowed us to verify these data. A year ago, Israel Huaytari handed over nine committee secretariats to the Citizen Community, some for the mesistas and others for the dissidents. This year that number grew and CC has 14 committee secretaries, six of the dissidents of the front led by Carlos Mesa have committee secretaries.

The dissidents are: Keyla Ortiz Doradoas secretary of the Cultures committee; Marcelo Pedrazas, secretary of the Amazon Region committee; Mariel Peñaloza Lernasecretary of the Committee to Fight Drug Trafficking; Mariela Baldivieso Castillosecretary of the Science and Technology committee; Walter Villagra Romaysecretary of the Labor Committee; finally, Oscar Balderas Montaño as secretary of the Natural Resources committee. These last two already had committees a year ago.

In the case of We Believe, the situation is similar.although with fewer charges. In 2023, Luis Fernando Camacho’s party had three committees and a commission; This year two committee secretaries rose, although those elected are dissidents of this party.

These are deputies Tito Caero Vargassecretary of the Habitat committee; and Omar Rueda Gutierrezsecretary of the Committee of First Nations and Indigenous Peoples. With these two secretariats, we believe it has two more than last year.

The manager explained that, In the case of commissions, the distribution of maintains For the parties, dissidents are not included in that distribution. Nine for the Arcist MAS-wing; two for CC and one for Creo, which totals 12 commissions.

This “engineering” of distribution of commissions and committees This is what delayed the arcistas in Deputies, regardless of the blockage promoted by the evistas in the sessions.
