Comandante Ramona, a Zapatista leader, traveled from the Lacandon Jungle to the CNI founding meeting despite federal government opposition and threats of military action against the insurgents. ^[1] On October 11, 1996, the Indigenous National Congress (CNI) was founded in Mexico City with 600 delegates from dozens of indigenous communities. ^[2] Olga María Sánchez Cordero Dávila announced on 2026-04-12 that she will retire from public life after the conclusion of the third year of the LXVI Legislature of the Mexican Senate. ^[3] Comparing the average GDP growth of each Mexican sexenio from Ernesto Zedillo to the present with the evolution of the real average IMSS cotization salary reveals an inverse relationship between economic growth and wage gains. ^[4] The author argues that in Mexico, the salary has not been set by growth, but by two more powerful forces: inflation and policy, specifically the minimum wage and labor market reforms. ^[5] Under Andrés Manuel López Obrador, the average annual growth was only 1%, the lowest since Miguel de la Madrid, but the real cotization salary rose around 24%. ^[6] Comandante Ramona presented the national flag to the assembly, stating that Mexico cannot exist without indigenous peoples and that they must never be forgotten. ^[7] The CNI emerged from the convergence of the Zapatista movement with other organizations fighting for indigenous rights since before 1994, including the San Andrés Dialogues signed on February 16, 1996. ^[8] During her tenure at the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation from 1995 to 2015, she supported key rulings in favor of the decriminalization of abortion. ^[9] In 1984, she made history by becoming the first woman to obtain, by opposition, a public notary patent in Mexico City, assuming the title of number 182. ^[10] Olga María Sánchez Cordero Dávila served as the first female Secretary of Governance in the history of Mexico, holding the position for three years before returning to the Senate in August 2021. ^[11] Labor poverty decreased from 40.7% to 32.3% of the population between late 2018 and late 2025 due to the growing wage mass. ^[12]
