No Vote No Money
Sin Voto no hay Dinero (lit. No Vote no Money) is a citizen campaign that supports reforms to the Constitution and the General Law of the Political Parties. It proposes to ration the dollar amounts destined for the parties in proportion to the number of valid votes obtained in the last election. With the introduction of a new formula it seeks to encourage parties to work for greater electoral participation because, to date, high levels of abstention have not affected the high amounts of monetary resources that are granted to parties. It is projected that this measure would save at least 2.2 billion pesos (117 million USD). Citizens have participated by contacting their deputies through social networks. The campaign managed to bring forth the initiative for discussion at the National Congress in April 2017.
