So far, eight local congresses have approved the constitutional reform regarding the non-appealability of additions to the Magna Carta, better known as "constitutional supremacy". This measure was approved by the majority of Morena and its allies in the Chamber of Deputies. At least 17 state congresses are required to support the reform for it to be declared constitutional, published in the Official Gazette of the Federation, and come into effect.
The Board of the Chamber of Deputies called for a session on Thursday, October 31, with the aim of receiving favorable votes from the states and thereby issuing the declaration of constitutionality. The congresses of Zacatecas, Tabasco, Mexico City, Quintana Roo, Sonora, Tamaulipas, Campeche, and Hidalgo have approved the constitutional changes.
On the other hand, the reform to articles 105 and 107 of the Constitution prevents the Judiciary from invalidating and granting injunctions to suspend constitutional reforms. Article 105 establishes that constitutional controversies or actions of unconstitutionality aimed at questioning additions or reforms to the Constitution will be inadmissible. Meanwhile, article 107 will establish that the amparo trial against additions or reforms to the Constitution will not proceed.
