Querétaro government returns gender-identity bill for a second time

Mexico

La Jornada reported on October 9 that Querétaro's government returned a gender-identity reform to the state legislature with observations for a second time, preventing publication. Legislature president Adriana Meza confirmed the return and said lawmakers were considering the next committee steps. The report does not supply the observations or establish a final rejection. Trans advocates demanded publication and transparency. The delay prolongs uncertainty around recognition; this report does not establish a new law in force.
