Since Claudia Sheinbaum's inauguration on October 1, 2024, the Mexican president has commanded widespread support in her country. Her approval hovers over 75 percent in most polls.

Her popularity—alongside majorities in both houses of Congress—has aided the advancement of her reform agenda and that of her party, Morena. She has overseen the passage of numerous constitutional reforms and announced a six-year industrial plan dubbed Plan Mexico to grow the economy and attract investment. Her government is also charged with the implementation of constitutional reforms passed in the final months of the presidency of Andrés Manuel López Obrador (2018-2024), her predecessor and political mentor. These include unprecedented nationwide judicial elections that took place on June 1.

Outside of her domestic agenda, Sheinbaum has also engaged in high-profile back-and-forths with U.S. President Donald Trump on trade relations, border security, and migration..
