Sheinbaum Advances Pensión Mujeres Bienestar Rollout With Card Deliveries, 2026 Targets

The rollout pairs direct 3,100‑peso bimonthly deposits for women 60–64 with an aggressive 2026 expansion funded by roughly one trillion pesos.

Overview

  • In Guerrero’s Costa Grande, Sheinbaum handed out Bienestar cards in Coyuca de Benítez and Petatlán, then continued the push in Lázaro Cárdenas, Michoacán.
  • The pension provides 3,100 pesos every two months to women ages 60–64, framed as recognition of years of unpaid care work.
  • Officials reported more than 74,000 beneficiaries in Guerrero, with deposits made directly on Banco del Bienestar cards without intermediaries.
  • The Social Development Secretary said Bienestar pensions will reach about 20 million people in 2026, with a national allocation near one trillion pesos; in Michoacán, 1.326 million recipients are slated for nearly 40 billion pesos.
  • The State of Mexico’s Mujeres con Bienestar remains at 2,500 pesos bimonthly with the first 2026 deposit scheduled for February, and authorities labeled a viral 2,750‑peso “bonus” message as fraudulent.
