Overview
- Accredited journalists reported that Senator Adán Augusto López Hernández read sports news on his tablet during a plenary debate on a measure to ease cancellation of contracted services without abusive conditions.
- Photographers captured images of the moment before Parliamentary Guard personnel moved to block camera angles and restricted press positioning on the chamber floor.
- Reporters said they were ordered to suspend work on the side of the hall where Morena sits and were confined to areas behind opposition benches, limiting their ability to document the session.
- The episode follows a widely shared incident last month when the senator watched the FC Barcelona vs. PSG match during the finance secretary Edgar Amador Zamora’s appearance in the Senate.
- Morena has not issued an official statement on the new controversy, which coverage notes centers on in-session conduct rather than prior, unrelated allegations.
