President Claudia Sheinbaum signed the constitutional reform limiting eligibility for the presidency, governorships and the Mexico City mayor’s office to people with only Mexican nationality starting in 2028.

Those who hold a second nationality and want to run for these offices will have to renounce it before applying to register as candidates. The provision seeks to ensure that people holding these responsibilities maintain only their legal bond of Mexican nationality while in office.

    I remember as a kid learning about why Arnold Schwarzenegger couldn’t run for president; which ironically I think he’d be decent at best, because he actually gives a shit about people, the law/rules, and public relations.
