On January 18 of 2024, Valido entered a controversy regarding her words on an amendment to the Spanish Constitution; the change removed the word "reduced" (disminuidos) from Article 49. During the deputy's subsequent speech, she apologized to people with disabilities, apologizing for the delay. This was met with criticism, as the Spanish word for delay is "retraso" and the derogatory word used against disabled individuals is "retrasado".[4]
