Laws Years Overdue

The constitutional reforms of 2017 gave Congress a maximum of 180 days to issue a national code of civil and family procedure. In May 2022, Morena deputy Aleida Alavez said, as reported by Expansión: “Tenemos más de cuatro años de retraso en atender el mandato constitucional” (We are more than four years late in meeting the constitutional mandate).

The same report named a law on the suspension of rights and guarantees. The human rights reform of 2011 had ordered Congress to issue it within one year. More than a decade later, it had not been issued.
