Career

On a 2019 visit to Miami, Rueda faced protests and calls for the United States government to revoke her visa, arguing she was complicit in alleged human rights violations by the FSLN government. Domestically, she faced criticism for her travel after billing the city of Managua 2.3 million córdobas (about $65,000 USD) for airplane tickets to 23 countries. As of 2017, the annual budget for the city was 5.19 million córdobas.
