Mexico School Cellphone Restrictions: 5 Positive Changes Coming in October<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nPromoted by President Claudia Sheinbaum, the bill prohibits dual nationality for those seeking the presidency of the republic, state governorships, and the head of government of Mexico City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The decision was backed by the qualified majority of the governing coalition, with 334 votes from lawmakers belonging to the National Regeneration Movement (Morena), Labor Party (PT) and Ecologist Green Party (PVEM).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The bill was rejected by 109 opposition votes from the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI), National Action Party (PAN) and Citizens\u2019 Movement (MC). One lawmaker abstained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The constitutional reform was sent to the Senate to continue its legislative process. Spokespeople for the majority coalition defended the amendment as an essential measure to safeguard national security and independence in the face of geopolitical pressures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ricardo Monreal, the Morena caucus coordinator, argued that the coexistence of two nationalities creates a direct conflict of political commitments when making strategic decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The reform does not seek to negatively characterize binational status or violate the rights of the migrant community, but rather to \u201ccarefully regulate\u201d access to the leadership of state and federal executive branches to prevent foreign interference in domestic politics, he explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Voluntarily renouncing a second nationality constitutes a legitimate condition for those seeking to lead the Mexican state, Morena lawmakers said, describing opposition lawmakers as \u201ctraitorous\u201d and subordinate to U.S. interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For their part, opposition parties lashed out at the bill and questioned both its legal viability. PAN coordinator Elias Lixa warned about the complexity of the procedures for renouncing nationality abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He stressed that renouncing citizenship is not an automatic process in the United States or in countries such as Ecuador or Argentina, whose legal frameworks do not provide for such a possibility. Therefore, renouncing a second nationality could result in the de facto disqualification of candidates if authorities in other countries delay their decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
