Marcelo Pedraza
Marcelo Pedraza is a Bolivian politician and a member of the Comunidad Ciudadana party, known for his outspoken views on social justice and economic issues. He has been particularly vocal about the financial privileges afforded to former presidents, arguing that such benefits should be reevaluated in light of the current economic challenges faced by ordinary citizens. Pedraza has proposed legislation aimed at eliminating the lifetime pensions granted to ex-presidents, claiming they do not contribute to the nation's welfare and that this privilege should be removed to alleviate the burden on taxpayers. His recent critiques of the government's salary increases for former leaders have sparked significant public debate regarding economic fairness in Bolivia.
