Baja California Governor Marina del Pilar Ávila has announced her full support for a new national water bill introduced by President Claudia Sheinbaum, endorsing an initiative aimed at overhauling water management and reaffirming public ownership of this vital resource. The endorsement came during Governor Ávila’s morning press conference on Wednesday, following President Sheinbaum’s presentation of the proposed General Water Law earlier in the day. The governor emphasized that the state will back the legislation because it is essential to uphold the principle that water belongs to the nation and its citizens, not to private interests.
