Thousands protested in Mexico City and other states against President Andrés Manuel López Obrador's proposed judicial reforms, which critics argue threaten democratic checks and balances. The demonstrations, primarily involving federal court workers and judges, culminated outside the Supreme Court, with participants emphasizing the need for 'Judicial independence' and 'Respect democracy.' López Obrador's reforms, which include electing judges, have raised concerns among analysts and legal experts who fear this could lead to politically biased and inexperienced judges. Lawyer Mauricio Espinosa highlighted the broader implications of these reforms, suggesting they would ultimately strengthen the executive branch and undermine judicial autonomy. The changes require congressional approval, where López Obrador's Morena party holds a significant majority despite winning fewer votes. Observers note that this legislative power could enable rapid implementation of the controversial judicial overhaul.
