How President AMLO’s Policies Lifted 13.4 Million Mexicans Out of Poverty

Kurt Hackbarth, writer for Jacobin and host of Soberanía: The Mexican Politics Podcast, joins the show to discuss Mexico’s historic achievement under President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: 13.4 million people lifted out of poverty in six years, including 2 million from extreme poverty. Hackbarth explains how AMLO’s social programs, wage increases, and labor reforms fueled this unprecedented progress and how the US continues to interfere, impose tariffs, and pressure Mexico, seeking to block its path to independent development.
