### Judicial Workers Block Bulevar Fundadores, Creating Traffic Chaos
On Tuesday, for the second day in a row, workers from the Federal Judicial Branch staged a protest by blocking Bulevar Fundadores in Tijuana. The demonstrators, holding signs opposing reforms to the Judicial Branch and waving Mexican flags, obstructed access to the boulevard in the direction of Bulevar Fundadores-Bulevar Agua Caliente.
The protest created significant disruption, forcing drivers to seek alternate routes and causing widespread frustration among commuters. Daniel Sánchez, the spokesman for the workers, stated that protests would continue until at least the end of the year, aiming to reverse the planned constitutional modifications.
Despite the significant traffic chaos, authorities were notably absent during the initial 45 minutes of the protest, leaving no traffic officers to assist in managing the flow of vehicles.
### Additional Information: Ongoing Protests and Reactions
In the broader context of these protests, the planned reform to the local Judicial Branch is anticipated to be implemented within the next six months. However, there is considerable opposition to these changes, with workers pledging continued demonstrations until their demands are met.
Moreover, the harmonization of the Baja California Judicial Branch with the federal reforms is expected to see minimal variations, according to local officials. Meanwhile, legislative bodies in the region, such as the Baja California Congress, maintain that they were not responsible for security during the votes on these judicial reforms.
Tijuana remains a hotspot for various social and political issues. Recently, activists have expressed concerns over the appointment of Jorge Alejandro Palau Hernández to the National Institute of Migration in BC, fearing increased militarization. Additionally, local employers report confusion over documentation required to hire migrants, and a mother has raised alarms over the alleged illegal removal of her teenager to Tijuana by her ex-husband.
These complex issues are set against a backdrop of economic fluctuations, with industry vacancies reported to be declining due to upcoming elections in the United States. However, optimism remains high among local businesses for new investments in the coming year.
