[QUOTE="Billybob, post: 2389737, member: 1294"] Senators to meet in Michoacán Senators belonging to the National Action Party (PAN) will hold their plenary session in Michoacán during the last three days of January, parliamentary coordinator Jorge Luis Preciado announced during a Sunday press conference. According to Preciado, the decision to hold the upcoming planning sessions in Michoacán was made so that the parties could learn firsthand about the problems generated by the conflict between drug traffickers, federal forces and self-defense groups. He added that there are no plans by PAN senators - all of whom have confirmed their attendance - to seek the protection of federal forces for their visit to the embattled state, where they will decide on the party’s agenda during the ordinary legislative sessions beginning in February. Preciado said that, during the plenary session, the PAN’s legislators will ask Alfredo Castillo, director of the newly-created Michoacán Security and Comprehensive Development Commission, to explain the federal government’s strategy to establish peace and stability, because Castillo’s appointment by the federal government removes powers from the state government, which Preciado said has legal consequences. “We’re going to invite (Castillo) to our plenary session so that he can discuss with us the comprehensive strategy that the federal government is implementing,” he said. He went on to say that his party will propose a reform to Article 76 of the Mexican Constitution so that the consequences of the formal declaration of a power vacuum in a state - which the PAN has pushed for in Michoacán - would include the creation of a governing council proposed by the federal government and approved by the Senate. Currently, the formal declaration of a power vacuum triggers new local elections. [url]http://www.thenews.com.mx/index.php/mexico-articulos/17909-senators-to-meet-in-michoacan[/url] [/QUOTE]
