Sheinbaum Urges Deputies to Rewrite Confusing Amparo Transitory After Senate Approval

Deputies face retroactivity concerns that may send the reform back to the Senate.

Overview

  • President Claudia Sheinbaum asked the Chamber of Deputies to clarify which ongoing cases should follow the old rules versus the new ones under the Ley de Amparo reform.
  • Arturo Zaldívar presented alternative wording for the first transitory and urged adjustments to prevent retroactive effects and confusion.
  • Senate commission chiefs Javier Corral and Enrique Inzunza said the current redaction is incompatible with the Constitution and said they do not know who proposed it.
  • Senator Manuel Huerta denied sole authorship, calling the transitory a collective process, after it was removed in committee, reintroduced by reservation in the plenary, and approved.
  • Chamber president Kenia López Rabadán forecast a tough debate over limits to provisional suspension and noted that any change by deputies would return the bill to the Senate.
