The Morena senator seems to work as a part-time senator, but she earns a full-time monthly salary
According to the Legislative Information System (SIL), in seven months as a senator, she has only presented one initiative: declaring December 1 as "National Potters' Day." She has presented five points of agreement, almost all focused on local issues in Chihuahua, as if she were a state deputy rather than a federal legislator.
Of the 82 votes recorded in this period, she simply didn't show up for three. And as if that weren't enough, she requested a leave of absence for two days in February, a brief pause that many attribute to political maneuvers rather than reasons of force majeure.
While citizens face collapsed hospitals, inflation, and violence, Andrea Chávez parades around Chihuahua with public resources and Senate salaries. She half-heartedly obeys Sheinbaum and the Morena leadership, as she will continue with her "medical caravans" which are nothing more than a disguised campaign.
In times when politics should be at the service of the people, Andrea Chávez represents the opposite. She uses power for self-promotion, the simulation of legislative work, and leveraging a public position as an electoral springboard.
Senators like her prostitute the honor of the Senator position, and her close relationship with Adán Augusto López leaves much to the imagination. This woman will do whatever it takes, even sell her dignity, for a mediocre political position.
Meanwhile, millions of Mexicans face insecurity, poverty, and lack of medical services, there are legislators who earn top-level salaries without truly fulfilling their role.
Such is the case of Andrea Chávez, senator from Morena who has been at the center of controversy these past few days. Chávez, instead of focusing on her legislative work, has dedicated time, resources, and attention to promoting her image in Chihuahua, under the guise of a supposed "health caravan."
For weeks, opponents have denounced that the senator launched an early campaign to position herself for the governorship of her state. Billboards, labeled vehicles, and tours in different regions of Chihuahua clearly show her face, name, and party colors.
All this, supposedly, as part of an itinerant medical program, but in reality, it seems more like a disguised proselytizing act.
For these actions, PAN legislators reported her to the Attorney General's Office for possible crimes such as corruption, misappropriation of public resources, influence peddling, and illicit enrichment.
Meanwhile, Andrea Chávez boasts of being "a woman of the people", she earns more than 131,700 pesos monthly as a senator. That doesn't include benefits like year-end bonus, solidarity savings, health insurance, and other privileges.
