In April of this year, Grecia Quiroz took over as honorary president of the DIF Uruapan, with the commitment to strengthen said institution and be at the service of the most vulnerable sectors.
At his inauguration, he recognized the institution’s material shortcomings, but stated that he was confident that with effort and teamwork they could be overcome.
This Tuesday, the Uruapan Council presented the formal proposal to the Michoacán Congress for Quiroz to be elected as the alternate municipal president. Hours later it was decided that she will be the one to occupy the place that her husband won at the polls.
In addition to her experience at the head of the municipal DIF, Grecia Quiroz aspired in 2024 to a local council for district 20 of Uruapan, nominated as an independent candidate by the civil association Mujeres Empoderando Uruapan, a candidacy from which she resigned in January 2025.
In the midst of mourning the murder of Carlos Manzo Rodríguez, the mayor’s wife has transformed her pain into a speech of resistance.
During the posthumous tribute held in the municipality, Quiroz García took the stage to address hundreds of citizens and made it clear that her husband’s legacy will not end with his death.
