**Primary Article: Judicial Reform Suggestion from Sheinbaum, Monreal Reveals; Norma Piña to Propose Initiative**
Ricardo Monreal Ávila, the soon-to-be coordinator of the Morena legislative group in the Chamber of Deputies of the Union Congress, disclosed agreements made on August 27, 2024, with president-elect Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo. Among these agreements was the decision to avoid hastening the discussion on the reform of the Federal Judicial Power (PJF).
“The president-elect has suggested to the parliamentary group that they should be careful with all procedural stages, ensuring no stage is compromised and that they shouldn’t rush. This suggestion is strictly aligned with the law and seems appropriate,” mentioned the politician from Zacatecas.
Though a second session could be held on September 1, 2024, Monreal clarified that the judicial reform won’t necessarily be approved on that day. “We will observe the time frames for publicity, general and particular discussions to make the debate thorough. This is Claudia Sheinbaum’s recommendation,” he added.
Additionally, Monreal noted that the president-elect urged deeper reflection and analysis of the electoral reform sent to Congress by President Andrés Manuel López Obrador on February 5, 2024. This means the reform won’t be discussed in September. However, this doesn’t imply it will be disregarded; rather, the effort will be to complete it properly.
Monreal emphasized that not resolving the electoral reform by the scheduled August 30, 2024 deadline doesn’t eliminate its consideration. A new proposal will be introduced in the LXVI Legislature starting September 1, 2024.
On the same day, Norma Lucía Piña Hernández, President of the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation (SCJN), announced that a proposal for the judiciary reform aimed at enhancing the entire justice system would be presented to the new Legislature, either with the majority of the ministers or personally by her.
In an interview, Piña emphasized everyone’s responsibility and adherence to their role, particularly regarding the judiciary’s independence, which she affirmed as crucial for a constitutional, democratic state.
Remarkably, for the first time ever, the SCJN Plenary suspended one of its sessions in support of protests by PJF workers. In an unprecedented vote, seven ministers, including Piña, opted to cancel the session, while a silent protest was carried out inside SCJN with demonstrators holding placards and singing the national anthem.
