Controversies

The deputy intervened during the vote on the Gender identity law in the Chamber of Deputies on September 12, 2018. On the occasion, he criticized the bill, pointing out that "in terms of pensions, men could decide that they are women to retire early", which earned him criticism from other parliamentarians and citizens on social networks.[5]

He has also been questioned about his relationship with the evangelical bishop, Eduardo Durán Castro, whose son he is, from whom he received an "allowance" as a deputy, and who has been investigated by the Chilean Investigative Police and the Internal Revenue Service due to accusations of money laundering and tax crimes within the evangelical church.[6]
