President with an A

On August 15, 2024, at the Teatro Metropolitan in Mexico City, President-elect Claudia Sheinbaum asked to be called presidenta. “Los próximos seis años, diremos presidenta con ‘A’. Porque lo que no se nombra, no existe” (For the next six years, we will say presidenta with an A. Because what is not named does not exist).

In December 2024, the Senate approved a constitutional reform that adds presidenta, gobernadora and other female titles to the Constitution.
