Rocío Nahle launches an attack on transparency: she seeks to eliminate IVAI

Rocío Nahle sent a proposal to the local Congress to dissolve the Veracruz Institute of Access to Public Information (IVAI), one of the last independent counterweights in Veracruz.

Claiming austerity, the proposal aims to transfer transparency functions to the State Comptroller's Office, that is, to the same apparatus that should be monitored. It's not about optimizing resources: it's about eliminating any possibility of auditing the new regime, shielding corruption under the official narrative of "transformation".

Veracruz, first trial of informational dictatorship

The disappearance of the IVAI would turn Veracruz into the first state where access to information would cease to be a right and become a political concession. While Nahle promises efficiency, she actually delivers a project to bury public transparency and ensure a government without social auditing or citizen controls.

The strategy follows the 4T recipe at the national level: dismantling uncomfortable institutions under the pretext of saving. Handing over transparency functions to the state Comptroller's Office is like putting the wolf in charge of the sheep: it eliminates any possibility of real auditing.

With this move, Rocío Nahle doesn't save money: she saves problems. She guarantees a state where no one investigates, no one questions, and no one dares to report. Access to information, the cornerstone of any democracy, will be turned into a procedure conditioned by political interests.

A country without the right to know

What Rocío Nahle is testing in Veracruz is the model that Morena seeks to impose throughout Mexico: a system where asking will be an act of disobedience and demanding accountability will be seen as a threat.

Today it's the IVAI; tomorrow it will be all the uncomfortable organizations for the new regime. Democracy isn't destroyed in a single blow: it erodes through reforms, decrees, and initiatives like this one, which disguise censorship as "austerity" to annihilate essential rights.

Veracruz has already taken the first step toward institutional darkness. Now, the entire country must decide whether to follow that same path or defend its right to know.
