National Governors Conference (Mexico)
The National Governors Conference (Spanish: Conferencia Nacional de Gobernadores) is a non-governmental organization in Mexico that consists of the governors of the states of Mexico.[1] The organization, known by the acronym CONAGO, was established in 2001 with a meeting of 20 governors in Mazatlan. The following year, 2002, marked the first meeting of CONAGO at which the governors of all 31 states attended.[2]
Governors of ten states left the CONAGO on September 7, 2020.[3] The governors all belong to the Alianza Federalista (Federalist Alliance) and they have criticized the government's responses to the health and economic responses to the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico. The governors involved are Javier Corral Jurado (CHH Template:PRI party, chairman), José Rosas Aispuro (DUR Template:PAN party), Enrique Alfaro Ramírez (JAL, Independent), Silvano Aureoles Conejo (MIC Template:PRD party), Francisco Javier García Cabeza de Vaca (TAM, Template:PRD party), José Ignacio Peralta (COL Template:MRN party), Miguel Ángel Riquelme Solís (COA Template:MRN party), Jaime Rodríguez Calderón (NLE, Independent), Diego Sinhué Rodríguez Vallejo (GUA Template:PAN party, and Martín Orozco Sandoval (AGU Template:PAN party).[3]
