In an attempt to point out nepotism in the Senate, Andrea Chávez ended up embroiled in the same controversy. The Morena legislator posted a document on social media that supposedly proves the brother of PAN senator Kenia López Rabadán obtained a high position in the Upper Chamber. However, users on social media and local media replied by revealing contracts and records linking two of Chávez's relatives to the legislative payroll.
The documents that reveal the double standard
Andrea Chávez shared an image of a contract pointing to José Bricio López Rabadán, the PAN member's brother. According to the document, he held the position of "Director of Parliamentary Evaluation" with a salary exceeding 100 thousand pesos per month.
Soon after, images of other contracts went viral. These documents reveal that her own father, José Luis Chávez Viguera, was also benefited with public resources. The same happened with Gregorio Chávez, another close relative, who obtained a contract in the Senate.
