On 18 May 2021 the leader of the Democratic Left disassociated Ortiz from the party. Guillermo Herrera was annoyed that Ortiz had not followed the party's voting and in particular she had supported the Christian Socialist Henry Kronfle as a candidate for the President of the National Assembly.[3][4] Ortiz became an independent leaving the other fifteen members of her party including Herrara, Yeseña Guamaní, Wilma Andrade and Johanna Moreira.[5]

In September 2022 the murder and presumed femicide of the lawyer María Belén Bernal gained international importance and the case was debated in the assembly[6] and mentioned in the United Nations.[7] Femicide in Ecuador is a problem and a specific offence which some believe is underreported in Ecuador.[8] A five woman team proposed by Pamela Aguirre was appointed to oversee the investigation after the main suspect, a police officer, had fled. The team members were Ana Cecilia Herrera, Mireya Pazmiño, Marjorie Chávez, Yeseña Guamaní and Amada Ortiz who was still an independent member.[9]
