Joanna Guerra\u2014a lawyer, philosopher, and director of Ladies of Liberty Alliance and Fundaci\xf3n Federalismo y Libertad in Mexico\u2014discusses the electoral reform Mexican President Andr\xe9s Manuel L\xf3pez Obrador (AMLO) proposed to Congress. For Guerra, the proposed reform was a threat to democracy and a step backward in the country\u2019s efforts to maintain political alternation. \n\nGuerra also analyzes how the AMLO administration will act after Congress rejected the proposal on December 6. AMLO\u2019s plan B includes smaller reforms and laws without modifying the Constitution, as originally intended. Guerra believes the discussion is far from over and that Mexicans will still have to fight to defend their democracy.\n\nShow notes: https://impunityobserver.com/2022/12/15/amlos-next-steps-to-transform-mexicos-electoral-system/
