Opposition congressman objects to law setting price cap on fuels in Guatemala and blocks its entry into force
World1 source1 country🔦 Under-reported9m ago
Opposition congressman Allan Rodríguez of the Vamos bloc has formally objected to Decree 21-2026 in Guatemala, a law designed to establish maximum price caps for fuels and implement a related subsidy. This procedural objection successfully prevents the decree from being sent to the Executive branch, thereby halting its entry into force.
In a separate legal development involving different regional jurisdictions, Mexico's Suprema Corte de Justicia de la Nación (SCJN) invalidated the entirety of Tamaulipas's Decree 66-1146 on September 10. The Mexican Supreme Court based its ruling on the determination that the local Congress had modified electoral provisions a mere 74 days before the commencement of the upcoming electoral process.
