Awareness
In that sense, Alejandra Alfaro Arteaga, president of the Association of Women Entrepreneurs of the city of Los Mochis, considered that this is where it enters the political and social commitment of each government to decide whether to maintain, increase or reduce their salary and of its officials.
“What I see is that some mayors are continuing with what they already had as their salary, but I think they can stand in solidarity with the issue of austerity, but it would be an individual decision to do so. If the salary is high or low, we can not establish because they already came, but, I repeat, it would be their decision if they decide to lower it, “he said.
