Ernestina Godoy Ramos (born January 17, 1954) is a Mexican lawyer and civil servant who has been the Attorney General of Mexico City [es] from 2018 to 2024. She was briefly a Senator of the Republic in 2024. She has served as Legal Counsel of the Federal Executive under President Claudia Sheinbaum since October 1, 2024. She is a founding member of the National Regeneration Movement (MORENA).

Career

[edit]

Born on January 17, 1954,[1] Ernestina Godoy Ramos graduated from the Law School of the National Autonomous University of Mexico.[2]

She founded various civil society organizations, such as the National Association of Democratic Lawyers, Civic Alliance, and Convergence of Civil Organizations for Democracy. In 1985, she set up an office to give legal assistance to victims of the Mexico City earthquake.[3]

She was a civil society representative in the Commission for Monitoring and Verification of the San Andrés Accords signed by the Zapatista Army of National Liberation and the government.[4]

As a public official, Godoy was Director of Delegation Development in Iztapalapa, Coordinator of Legal Affairs in the Social Prosecutor's Office of Mexico City, and General Legal and Legislative Studies Director in the Judicial and Legal Services Council of the Federal District.[5]

In her political career she was a local deputy in the 6th Legislature of the Mexico City Assembly and a federal deputy in the 63rd Legislature of the Mexican Congress.[2] She was also a local deputy in the 1st Legislature of the Congress of Mexico City, coordinating the MORENA parliamentary group.[2][6]

On November 22, 2018, mayor Claudia Sheinbaum named Godoy as Mexico City's next Attorney General.[7] She took office on December 5.[8]

Godoy Ramos sought election as one of Mexico City's senators in the 2024 Senate election, occupying the second place on the Sigamos Haciendo Historia coalition's two-name formula alongside Omar García Harfuch.[9] Despite the coalition's victory in the election, Godoy was later named president-elect Claudia Sheinbaum's choice for Legal Counsel to the Federal Executive [es]; her senate seat will therefore be assumed by her substitute, Karen Castrejón of the Ecologist Green Party of Mexico (PVEM).[10]
