Mexico lawmakers denounce proposed censorship law and INE resolution

Mexico censorship law INE resolution freedom of expression PRI opposition PAN criticism

The PRI bench in Mexico's Chamber of Deputies condemned a resolution by the National Electoral Institute (INE) that ordered the removal of social‑media posts by PRI senators Alejandro Moreno and Carolina Viggiano, calling the measure a censorship act that threatens democratic debate.

PAN deputy Jorge Carlos Soto Prieto warned that the ruling Morena party is advancing a series of reforms – including a biometric CURP, a phone‑registry system and a draft "Ley Censura" – that would restrict freedom of expression and impose a single political narrative.

Federal deputy Mario Íñiguez Franco described the draft law as a direct risk to press freedom, noting it would force electronic media to separate news from opinion, appoint audience defenders, publish ethics codes and grant a regulator authority to judge journalistic content, thereby opening the door to administrative censorship.
