1. Not all proposals are worth the same. A reform to the Constitution or a new law weighs 3; a reform to a law or code, 2; an exhortation or point of agreement, 1, and a positioning, 0.5. It is an adaptation of the Multidimensional Transcendence Index (Bárcena, Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Políticas y Sociales, 2019), which distinguishes high-impact proposals from symbolic ones.
2. What happened to each one matters. Approved sum 100; reviewed by the commission, 60; on time, 35; delayed, 15; rejected, 5, and frozen, 0. The rating is the average, giving each proposal the weight of its importance. Positions are not voted on, so they do not enter the rating.
3. Colors. Green: achieves results. Blue: your proposals move forward. Yellow: He submitted, but his proposals are frozen or stopped (lack of momentum, not necessarily bad faith). Red: submitted or endorsed proposals against of LGBTTTIQANB + rights. Grey: remained silent, neither presenting nor endorsing anything.
4. Allies who drive and allies who support. Submitting a proposal is worth twice as much as signing it in support. Whoever presents bills drives the agenda; whoever only signs, presents exhortations or positions themselves, accompanies it.
70 or higher: effective · 45 to 69: advances · 25 to 44: waiting · less than 25: submitted, no progress. We only count the proposals on LGBTTTIQANB+ rights that this observatory follows, not all its legislative work. We measure progress in Congress; if a law is followed later, in people's lives, it requires an impact assessment ex post like the one proposed by Transparencia Mexicana (2023).
