National Front to deliver signatures against gay marriage bill in Mexico

The National Front for the Family will deliver half a million signatures this Wednesday in Mexico's lower house of the Congress of the Union (Chamber of Deputies) against the President Enrique Peña Nieto's same-sex marriage bill and the inclusion of gender ideologies in public schools.

Mario Romo, through the Siame Catholic journal, said that during the delivery of the signatures, representatives of the Front will hold talks with Javier Bolaños Aguilar, a deputy with the PAN party, Mexico's conservative party, and President of the Chamber of Deputies, to voice their opposition to gender ideologies.

“80 of us will attend the Chamber of Deputies to represent the 1 million 700 thousand protestors that marched on September 10 and 24 in all states in Mexico and in Mexico City,” he said.

“We hope that during this session the deputies can fulfill our demands,” he continued.

He said that the Front's representation has already been received by the Minister of the Interior, and he hopes the President will also receive the Front, which, according to them, would be a good gesture of the President's willingness to hear the people.

Rodrigo Iván Cortés, a speaker for the Front, said he has yet to receive an invitation from the President to hold a meeting in which he can express the group's concerns over the President’s same-sex marriage bill.”

“We received a phone call from the President's office, but we have yet to be given a date and time for our meeting.”

He also said the National Front for the Family has conducted a meticulous study of material that forms part of the public education's curriculum, and they have found things and information that they deem inappropriate for children.

“We've seen content from other countries that we believe to be unsuitable. Our organization has made sure not to share this information so as to not generate any confusion. But it's also a fact that in our own country there is harmful content, which we will make public soon through press releases and on social media,” he concluded.
