💨 Abstract

Mexico's lower house of Congress approved a judicial overhaul legislation to transition the country to a system of elected judges over three years. The legislation passed with a large majority, backed by the ruling Morena party. The reform will require voters to elect all judges in elections in 2025 and 2027, a move that critics say will end the judiciary's political independence, potentially giving control to Morena and its allies.
