Letters of Gold

On the Wall of Honor of the Chamber of Deputies, names are inscribed in gold letters. The chamber states its purpose: “mantener vivo el recuerdo de los hombres, mujeres e instituciones que han brindado relevantes servicios a la patria” (to keep alive the memory of the men, women and institutions that have rendered relevant services to the nation).

The chamber’s list of inscriptions since 1994 begins with Sor Juana InĂ©s de la Cruz, by a decree published in April 1995. The most recent, by a decree published on March 3, 2025, honors “la Comunidad Mexicana Migrante” (the Mexican migrant community).
