In 2017 he joined the ranks of Morena and for the 2018 elections he won again a Federal Diputación.
Pablo Gómez was also a teacher at the Faculty of Economics of the UNAM and is the author of several books, such as ‘Democracy and political crisis in Mexico’ (1976); ‘The left and democracy’ (1984); ‘Mexico 1988: dispute for the presidency and parliamentary struggle’ (1989); ‘The secret expenses of the President’ (1996) and ‘1968: History is also made of defeats’ (2008).
The 1968 movement
In his time as an economy student, Pablo Gómez participated in the 1968 student movement that led to the killing of thousands of young people in the three cultures of Tlatelolco.
In that place, on October 2, 1968, Gómez Álvarez was arrested and imprisoned. He left free in 1971 and immediately integrated into the student struggle again. That same year, he participated in the mobilization of June 10, where young people were killed by a paramilitary group known as Los Falcones.
Five years later, he finished his career at the Faculty of Economics and formalized his militancy in the Mexican Communist Party. There began his political career.
Electoral reform
During the six -year period of López Obrador, an electoral reform was tried to approve, but the Morena party did not reach sufficient votes in Congress to modify the Constitution.
Now, Sheinbaum takes up the task, as he did with other reforms promoted at the time by the former president. With the majority in the Legislative, the president already managed to carry out frozen amendments in the previous six -year term.
