Overview

• The Senate approved the amendments and sent the bill to the Executive, with votes splitting 83–38 in general and 81–31 in particular along party lines.
• Arturo Zaldívar and President Claudia Sheinbaum said the reform is not retroactive and does not curtail access to justice or acquired rights in ongoing cases.
• Key changes narrow suspensions, including for UIF bank‑account blocks unless lawful origin of funds is shown, as well as for acts tied to public debt or financial‑system stability and for arrest warrants; a minimum vital is preserved in erroneous blocks.
• The text refines standing to require a real, current and differentiated legal injury and streamlines tax‑credit litigation by limiting serial challenges to intermediate stages.
• Sheinbaum rejected Fitch Ratings’ view that the reform raises regulatory risk and signaled technical briefings to explain that investment conditions are unaffected.
