If they took a look at Twitter —on Thursday, April 27—, they surely saw tweets of the despapaye between senators and senators for the discussion of the appointment of a new INAI commissioner. This story continues, now, with the closure of the entrance to the Senate.
All afternoon-night of April 27, the bench of Morena and allies and their counterpart were discussing the INAI, to such a degree that there was manazos, shoving, shouting in the stands and a sleepover from the opposition. The reason?
He appointment of a new commissioner or a new INAI commissioner —which will allow this institute to resume its session work, after several weeks of being on hiatus.
(The history of this pause in the INAI is somewhat long, but in summary it is due to the fact that AMLO objected to the appointment of a couple of commissioners, which prevented the National Institute of Transparency, Access to Information and Data Protection from continuing with his job).
Senate entrance closed due to INAI discussion
Total that on April 27 a good noise began to emerge around what was going to happen with the INAI.
First a senator from Morena came out with a proposal to make him disappearthen he lowered it because he made a mistake from responsible institutions and in ooootro episode, the discussion reached the point of shouting—the brand new Senate we have—for the appointment of a new commissioner.
In fact, the application was already on the table. It was about Ricardo Salgado, to whom Morena did not give the go-ahead and the discussion, again, got bogged down.
Then, opposition senators made a sleepover in the Senate rostrum to protest against Morena’s decisions.
And… Morena’s response came via an order to stay on the 14th floor to continue with the Senate sessions —and in one of those maybe continue with the theme of INAI.
He confinement on the 14th floor of commissions
Alejandro Armenta Mier —the same person who presented the initiative to give the INAI a neck— published a order so that people outside “the legislative links do not enter the scheduled session in the Senate.
(On this occasion, the session will take place on the 14th floor of the Senate Commission Tower because the Tribune is taken over by the opposition).
Yes, this April 28, the senators will be quartered, according to the protocols of “security” published by the president of the Senate Alejandro Armenta.
Let’s see what’s up. Meanwhile, here we leave you an explanatory note about what has happened in the Senate and the discussion about the INAI.
