Sonora Governor Alfonso Durazo announced that the state will implement its largest social budget in history in 2026, allocating over 12.6 billion pesos specifically for social programs aimed at reducing poverty and supporting vulnerable families.
The total state budget for 2026 will reach 92.57 billion pesos, guided by three principles: no new taxes, a strong social focus, and continued regional development investment.
Durazo emphasized that the budget “serves everyone but prioritizes those who have been marginalized for decades.” Key allocations include:
- 9+ billion pesos for public security (historic level)
- 1.48 billion for healthcare
- 4.35 billion for dignified housing
- 1.59 billion for regional development
- 1.28 billion for public transportation improvements and subsidies
- 4 billion for public works and economic growth
- 940 million for modernization of roadways such as Hermosillo–Miguel Alemán
- 152 million for Civil Protection (up from 96 million)
Durazo said the 2026 budget continues the state’s social transformation by expanding rights and opportunities for Sonorans—without raising taxes.
