SUMMARY – MORNING PRESIDENTIAL PRESS CONFERENCE – MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 2024

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador pointed out that while reforms have been introduced in the executive and legislative branches, corruption still prevails in the judicial branch. This is why it is urgent to clean it up for the benefit of all. He criticized those who claim that the Judicial Reform proposal will impose a monarchy or dictatorship. “Nothing is going to be destroyed, just the opposite,” he stressed.

President López Obrador criticized and denounced National Action Party senator María de Jesús Díaz Marmolejo, who called for those who vote in favor of the Judicial Reform to be lynched.
