After recently learning that next year’s Mexican federal budget includes just one major infrastructure project in Sonora, Gov. Claudia Pavlovich said she would work to bring more resources and projects to her state.

But asked if the state was getting shortchanged, President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador pushed back at a morning press conference last week.

“Yes, it’s being supported, like every other state, and we will continue supporting it,” he said.

He also pointed to a recently inaugurated dam in the state, and other federally supported projects, as well as investment commitments made last month to the state’s indigenous Yaqui people.
