Secret Service Agent Leaks Sensitive Information About US Vice President's Security

  

Perla Villareal, local representative of District IV of Monterrey, is one of the women who, accompanied by the men, all legislators from the state of Nuevo León, broke the silence and through a video, spoke about what was already an open secret: that the governor of the state, Samuel García, the party in which he is a member, Movimiento Ciudadano and, incidentally, Donaldo Colosio, the municipal president of Monterrey, set aside the law and privilege their personal interests, violating the rights of others, including those of local opposition deputies.

We leave this statement of facts and complaint by Perla Villareal to you. It is you who make the final judgment on the archaic and reprehensible way in which one of the Mexican states is governed that, according to its own people, deserves a better government:

“Being a woman is difficult, being a woman in politics is even more difficult, being a political woman harassed on issues of gender violence is something that no one should experience.

During this year in the Congress of Nuevo León we approved various reforms to the local Constitution on different issues, some of these in order to prevent excessive abuse of power by the governor, seeking balance between different public functions. Given this, the Citizen Movement bench, together with its state leadership, have gone so far as to hold various press conferences to publicly state that they seek to gain a majority in the State Congress. They have expressed it between the lines and affirm that it is urgent that the governor be able to do whatever he wants, despite the law.

This has turned out to be so true that, with their recent actions, they have hinted at the urgency that the Citizen Movement bench has in wanting to gain more seats, such as the one left by former deputy Fernando Adame and his substitute, precisely due to pressures that the state government was exercising over both. They have tried in every way to want to remove that seat from my colleague and deputy Cecilia Robledo, even contradicting her speech on parity, alleging that that seat belongs to a man and not a woman... as long as they keep another member in Congress .

 In this context, since they have not achieved what they are looking for, the state government has closed my family's businesses, going so far as to close the businesses of friends and even unknown people who have my last name and the facts are in the media. This in order to intimidate me and get a vote in favor of the Citizen Movement in the State Congress.

I made it clear to the governor for a long time that my will is not for sale, that my loyalty is with Nuevo León and the residents of the District that I represent. I continue and will continue with the PRI legislative group that nominated me and for which I was elected.

I have filed formal complaints with the corresponding authorities, so that they continue to investigate not only the acts of harassment against my family, but also the entire actions of these agencies that are being used for apparent extortion purposes. The systematic persecution of the government of Samuel García of the opposition is an attack on democracy, it is the main feature of a despotic and authoritarian government that does not admit any idea that is not aligned with its interests, regardless of whether it is for the good of the state.

 Their repeated and systematic actions with evidence of wanting to cause pressure on us through our family environment are very serious and therefore, they have already been reported to the Public Ministry. Given this. I received a protection order for myself and my family. However, there is so much interest and time that the governor dedicates to trying to intimidate me that he himself filed a constitutional controversy before the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation against the protection order that a Judge granted me and even requested that its effects were suspended.

 Not even 24 hours later, when the effects of the protection order were suspended, the state authorities returned to harass my family's businesses.

 I am sure that the Supreme Court, once it thoroughly studies this matter and learns about the unprecedented context of extortion and political persecution, will agree with us.

 I looked for the governor directly and his private secretary to be able to talk, add and build, and it is a date that he did not want to face me. He continues to attack us publicly as we have seen in past days at all his events. Another thing that is really serious is the way they use the Civil Force to intimidate and deprive workers, my family and friends of their freedom.

 My mother's husband and his workers were deprived of their liberty by the Civil Force where, because they did not want to leave their business, they were taken into custody. The Health and Environment Secretariats attack and go so far as to close with lax excuses that what least merits is the closure of a business. In another act of attack, many of my colleagues and I have been given water reducers by the Monterrey Water and Drainage Services, which has been carrying out various actions against us, such as going to our homes. individuals, family and friends, as well as personal and management offices, where workers from this agency have imposed water reducers without warning, without our consent and in an arbitrary manner. This without any reason, without receiving any notification, explaining to us the legal basis that supports said actions. They violate our right to access to water. In addition, it is important to mention that on many occasions, they arrive at dawn.

We want a free Nuevo León, a Nuevo León where institutions are not used for purposes that were not created, a government that respects Powers and where being a woman is free. Today there are more than 75 acts of inconvenience towards me and my family reported to the Nuevo León State Prosecutor's Office.

Today we women stand up and raise our voices. Today we demand respect and freedom of expression. Today we are not afraid. Today we tell the governor of Nuevo León to dedicate himself to building the state that is falling apart, to respect the division of powers and the rule of law, to let us work. Let him join in building, not dividing. Today we say Mr. Governor with the women of Nuevo León, NO.
