Mexico is a federal representative democratic republic and operates under a multi-party system. The federal government consists of three branches: the executive, legislative, and judicial. The executive branch is headed by the President, who is both the head of state and government. The legislative branch consists of two chambers: the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate. Both chambers are elected by popular vote to serve six-year terms. The judicial branch is composed of Supreme Court justices appointed by the President with Senate approval. Mexico has had a long history of transitioning between different political parties since its transition to democracy in 2000. Currently, Mexico’s Congress is dominated by two major parties: the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) and the National Action Party (PAN). Additionally, there are several smaller parties such as the Democratic Revolution Party (PRD), Citizen’s Movement Party (Movimiento Ciudadano), and social democratic Labor Party (PT). All political parties must be registered with Mexico’s Federal Electoral Institute in order to participate in elections for public office. PROEXCHANGERATES: Features public policy of Mexico.
