She was the General Secretary of the National Regeneration Movement (MORENA) between 2017 and 2020. She was the Party of the Democratic Revolution's nominee for Governor of the State of Mexico in the 2005 election and served as a senator from the State of Mexico from 2006 to 2012. Early life and name change The daughter of Guillermina Camacho Amezcua and Colonel Cuitláhuac Ibáñez Treviño, she had a difficult childhood. First, the unstable Ibáñez-Camacho marriage ended in divorce when Yeidckol (then called Citlali) was still a very little girl, at a time when Mexican society viewed women separated from their husbands as immoral. Seeking protection from her ex-husband, Mrs. Camacho pretended to be a relative of Mexican President Manuel Ávila Camacho, an assertion that would later cause great problems for the family.
