Hugo Eric Flores Cervantes

[1] In addition to becoming a partner at the law firm of Durán, Flores, and Soria, he was the pastor of Casa sobre la Roca (House on the Rock), a Neo-Pentecostal church that supported Felipe Calderón in the 2006 presidential election.

That same year, after Calderón's election, he obtained a civil service position in the Secretariat of Environment and Natural Resources (SEMARNAT).

After six months in the post, he was accused by the secretariat's internal oversight agency of disobeying orders from the secretary and altering a document, prompting his removal and barring him from a public service position until 2020.

[1] Additionally, he has been designated a PES representative in various capacities, including before the National Electoral Institute[4] and as one of the fourteen designees of the Chamber of Deputies to the Constituent Assembly of Mexico City.

[5] In September 2023, he filed paperwork with the National Electoral Institute, enabling him to collect signatures for a possible run as an independent candidate for president of Mexico in the 2024 general election.
