The coordinator of federal deputies for Morena , Mario Delgado , celebrated the approval of the Salaries of Public Servants Ordinance by the president of the senate Martí Batrés , so that it may be published in the Official Journal of the Federation (DOF) . Among other things, the law sets a limit for the president’s salary and ends pensions for former presidents of Mexico .
On his Twitter account, Mario Delgado commented: “It is now official: No more pensions for ex-presidents!” while retweeting a picture of the new ordinance published by Martí Batres:
The new law comes as part of the President-elect Andrés Manuel López Obrador ’s austerity policy, and encompasses measures such as cutting wages of government officials so that none of them make more money than the president of Mexico.
Once the deadline expired for the Executive power to publish a decree to enact said law, the new ordinance came into force automatically. However, the president of the Senate, who is also a member of the left-wing party Morena, passed the decree on to the director of the DOF for its immediate publication .
In this sense, this is the first decree to go into effect even though President Enrique Peña Nieto omitted its publication and observation.
One of the campaign commitments of President-elect López Obrador was to put an end to pensions received by former presidents of Mexico, as well as setting a limit of 108 thousand pesos for the president’s salary , which no public server will be allowed to exceed.
