The Institutional Revolutionary Party’s (PRI) presidential candidate Enrique Peña Nieto says that he will make a commitment to the single mothers of Mexico, providing them with life insurance funded by the federal government.

Peña Nieto signed his commitments in front of a public notary to guarantee his promises to the public.

“I know that a mother’s main concern is the future of her children, especially in the case where she is not present,” said Peña Nieto, speaking in Tuxpan, Veracruz.

The candidate also promised to finish the construction of the Tuxpan-Tampico highway, which has been under construction for decades. He mentioned that there are several mayors in the state of Veracruz, albeit from different political parties, who are interested and committed to finishing the construction of the highway.

Peña Nieto thanked the mayors for joining his campaign and said, “I respect and appreciate their (the mayors’) decision (to join the project).”

On Saturday, Peña Nieto signed another commitment to finish the construction of the Cardel-Poza Rica highway. Construction of the highway began several years ago.

Finishing the Cardel-Poza Rica highway is essential because “from the development of infrastructure, Mexico can regain the leadership that formally characterized it (the country),” Peña Nieto said. “Infrastructure allows us to improve competitiveness for the economic growth of Mexico.”
