Yesterday, the Congress of the Union declared the validity of the constitutional reform that establishes that no protections, controversies or any other legal recourse are admissible against modifications to the Magna Carta.

The declaration of this reform, known as supremacy of the Constitution, it was made first by the Chamber of Deputies and then by the Senate. It is a legislative process that was accelerated from the beginning and dizzying in its final stretch, since in less than 24 hours it was approved in San Lázaro and in 23 state legislatures.

The Presidency of the Republic published last night in the Official Gazette of the Federation (DOF) the decree by which the supremacy of the Constitution is established. The document, distributed in the evening version of DOFestablishes that the decree will come into force the day after its publication, that is, this November 1st.

Once this modification on the unchallengeability of the supreme law of the country is enacted and enters into force, the Senate will immediately request the Supreme Court that all appeals presented against the judicial reform must be dismissed, as established in the second transitional article of the new order, warned the president of that chamber, Gerardo Fernández Noroña.

In the afternoon, in the Chamber of Deputies, the session lasted just 15 minutes. The parliamentary groups of PAN, PRI and MC did not attend, as they had already announced that they would be absent to not validate the amendment to constitutional articles 105 and 107, approved by Morena and its allies on Wednesday night, and which hours later began to be voted on in cascade in local congresses.

On the platform, the Morenoist coordinator, Ricardo Monreal Ávila, highlighted that the reform of constitutional supremacy is the deepest in 200 years of the country’s life. Nobody dared and nobody had the qualified majority that the people granted us.

He argued that It is false that the amparo trial, unconstitutionality actions or constitutional controversies end. These institutions remain unscathed, untouched.

The decree was sent to the Senate, which had recessed the session and shortly afterwards also formulated the declaration of constitutionality. A debate followed between Morena and the opposition and an angry reaction from the PRI leader, Alejandro Moreno Cárdenas, who was about to get into a fight with Fernández Noroña.

After 6:30 p.m., the secretary of the board of directors, Verónica Camino, listed the 23 state congresses that endorsed the reform: Baja California, Baja California Sur, Campeche, Chiapas, Colima, Durango, Guerrero, Hidalgo, state of Mexico, Morelos, Nayarit, Oaxaca, Puebla, Quintana Roo, San Luis Potosí, Sinaloa, Sonora, Tabasco, Tamaulipas, Tlaxcala, Yucatán, Zacatecas and Mexico City.

Once the votes of 23 local legislatures were computed, which exceeded the necessary majority of 17, Fernández Noroña formulated the declaration and sent the decree to the DOFalthough after the procedure a bitter discussion arose.

PRI senator Claudia Anaya protested because, she assured, she was not allowed to speak about that process full of irregularities. She was supported by her coordinator Manuel Añorve, who insisted that this reform “is the Herod’s Law“Either you’re screwed or you’re screwed.”

In response, the coordinator of Morena, Adán Augusto López Hernández, commented that the reform about to be published is fundamental for the legal history of the country. The Senate has fulfilled the old desire of Mariano Otero, the father of the Amparo Law, when in 1847, in a private vote, he said that in this country there should not be the government of the judges, but the government of the people..

The legislator and leader of the PRI, Alejandro Moreno Cárdenas, went up to the presidium to demand that Fernández Noroña not close the debate. Don’t yell at me!answered the brunette. Since the PRI member did not leave, he also demanded that he not touch him. Give yourself respectthe PRI member replied.

It seemed that they were going to come to blows, but senators from the cherry also got up to the plenary session, among them Judith Díaz, and there was pulling and elbowing. Alito He came down from the podium and from his seat insisted that the approved reform It is an attack on the Constitution. He once again blamed the 4T group that achieved the qualified majority, by taking two senators from the PRD and threatening others.

López Hernández responded that they already have 87 legislators and next week they will reach 89 members, two more than they have now, which motivated them to Alito I will call them corrupt ball and will remind them of their PRI past.

The vice coordinator of Morena, Ignacio Mier, responded to the PRI gravedigger that behind this rejection of the reform is the need to maintain a legal framework to protect their economic and political interests.
