Sheinbaum’s initiatives on the PJF advance

The two secondary reforms in judicial matters that President Claudia Sheinbaum sent to the Senate passed the first customs yesterday in this Chamber, when they were approved in United Commissions by the majority of Morena and its allies, in an eventful session and amid complaints from opponents considering that it is being legislated on the knees and with haste.

The initiatives to modify the general laws of Electoral Institutions and Procedures and the Media Challenge System in electoral matters were approved last night by the Government and Legislative Studies commissions.

After four hours of debate, in the end confusion prevailed, because after the reform to the General Law of Electoral Institutions and Procedures was approved in general and in particular, the Morenista Olga Sosa Ruiz presented a reservation to modify both that ordinance such as the General Law of the System of Means of Challenge.

The reservation refers to the operation and times of the Electoral Tribunal, and should have been presented separately. However, it was done jointly and this was voted on, although the Law of Challenges had not yet been generally approved.
