**Son of President AMLO Takes Nomination for Morena’s Organization Secretary Role**
At the 7th Extraordinary National Congress of Morena held today, Andrés López Beltrán, son of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, received the nomination to seek the position of Organization Secretary for the political institute. The election for this role is set for today, September 22.
López Beltrán pledged to uphold what he described as the legacy and mission of his father, the founder of Morena, who concludes his term as President of the Republic on September 30.
“Our work at the forefront of this secretariat will be to maintain that legacy, that direction. He is retiring because he said he would step down when there was a generational change. I want everyone to understand that when we talk about this change, we are talking about our elected president, Comrade Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo,” López Beltrán told the assembly gathered in Mexico City on Sunday.
Today, Morena members will also elect the president of the party’s National Executive Committee (CEN) and the Secretary-General. Luisa María Alcalde, the current Secretary of the Interior, is a candidate for the CEN presidency and has the support of federal deputies, AMLO, and other top party officials.
The individuals elected today will take office immediately, with the new members of the National Executive Committee set to assume their roles on October 1. Alcalde Luján is expected to complete her term as Secretary of the Interior on September 30.
