Gabino Cué follows through on promise to replicate Mexico City's social programs

Oaxaca governor Gabino Cué announced that the state has so far set aside 2.4 billion pesos for social programs similar to those in Mexico City championed first by Andrés Manuel López Obrador and then expanded by Marcelo Ebrard:

* 500 pesos paid monthly to 35,000 seniors
* 1,500 pesos paid to single mothers who have lost their jobs, for a maximum of three months
* Health and social insurance to 25,000 persons suffering from some kind of disability.
