He recalled that this Thursday, August 8, the “National Dialogues for the Reform of the Judicial Branch” will conclude in Sinaloa, so that, from August 12 to 18, the Constitutional Affairs Committee of the Chamber of Deputies can formulate the corresponding opinion and send it to the Board of Directors of the co-legislator.
Monreal explained that on the 29th of this month, the members of the new Legislature will be sworn in as legislators, so that they can attend the formal installation of the Chambers on September 1.
Hypothetically, he added, the discussion of judicial reform would begin on September 2, with all the formalities taken care of, so that in the second week of that month the process in the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate would be concluded, and the project would be sent to the state congresses.
He also estimated that the reform to the Judicial Branch would be approved and published in the Official Gazette of the Federation before the end of the term of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, that is, before September 30.
Lawmaker Monreal also accepted that as the approval of the reform to the Judicial Branch approaches, there will be more polarization on the issue.
On the other hand, he assured that Morena and its allies will not allow “a single seat or position that they obtained at the polls to be taken away from them.”
He emphasized that in the composition of the Congress of the Union “there is no overrepresentation” of any political party, that it was the citizen judgment that gave Morena and its allies the qualified majority “and gave us the power to reform.”
With the participation of different sectors of the Judicial, Legislative and Executive powers, we will successfully conclude the forums of the National Dialogues for the Reform of the Judicial Power, an initiative of the president @lopezobrador_I spoke to the media about this. pic.twitter.com/wiaqttZomv
