The CitizenGO platform denounced that the Morena party, of the president of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, is preparing a series of bills with which they “go against the Church with everything.”
In an email sent to its subscribers, CitizenGO pointed out that “through five legislative projects”, members of López Obrador’s party “basically what they want is to criminalize those who do not think like them.”
The pro-life and pro-family platform pointed out that the package of legislative projects that are already under discussion in the Chamber of Deputies of the Congress of the Union, Mexico’s federal legislative body, “includes an initiative with a draft decree by which section IV of article 29 of the Law on Religious Associations and Public Worship is reformed”.
With this reform, he warned, the aim is to “expressly punish religious associations or ministers of worship, when they express expressions or acts of discrimination against people, particularly in the case of those acts of discrimination against people for reasons of their sexual identity or gender expression.
“The proposal contemplates avoiding ‘any attack or discrimination from religious organizations and their agents,'” CitizenGO continued, questioning: “Who do they consider their agents? To all of us who agree and assume the positions of the religious?
Another of the legislative projects, CitizenGO pointed out, seeks to add “a section XII Bis to article 29 of the Law of Religious Associations and Public Worship, ‘to sanction with the loss of registration as a religious association, those associations that hide or cover up ministers of cult who have committed acts of pederasty and violence against women’”.
The bills are promoted from Morena by the lesbian deputy Reyna Celeste Ascencio Ortega and the transgender deputies Salma Luévano Luna and María Clementa García.
For CitizenGO, “in addition to the failure in insecurity; of the failure in dealing with the pandemic and the economic failure that we Mexicans suffer, the radicals of Morena want to pay for the division and rancor.”
More than five thousand people have signed CitizenGO’s “NO to legalization of political persecution” campaign. To join, you can go to: https://citizengo.org/es-mx/205898-no-legalizacion-persecucion-politica.
