"There won't be an invasion."

"I believe it's not going to happen."

We will not send military "to invade Mexico."

"There is no evidence that the U.S. is considering military action against Mexico or election interference."

"It [the idea of military strikes in Mexico] sounds good, but it's not real."

"Trump's history with this threat [to invade Mexico] suggests we should take it more seriously."

President Trump is committed to "using the full might of the United States special operations to take them [drug cartels] out [of Mexico]."

An invasion of Mexico is "something I could actually see Trump doing."

"If it takes military action [against Mexico], that's what we'll have to do."

US sending troops into Mexico "could happen."

Will the USA Invade Mexico?

Mexico's Chamber of Deputies approved a constitutional amendment on May 28 to add foreign interference as grounds for annulling elections, passing with 307 votes in favor, 128 against and one abstention. The measure now moves to the Senate.

Mexico's Chamber of Deputies approved a constitutional amendment on May 28 to add foreign interference as grounds for annulling elections, passing with 307 votes in favor, 128 against and one abstention. The measure now moves to the Senate.

The amendment modifies Article 41 of the Mexican Constitution, stipulating that annulment applies when "acts of foreign intervention or interference that influence the electoral results are proven." The wording was revised from an earlier draft before the final vote.

Morena coordinator Ricardo Monreal, who authored the bill, said Article 40 of the Constitution already prohibits foreign intervention but carries no penalty. The amendment to Article 41 establishes election annulment as that sanction.

President Claudia Sheinbaum said "it is important to safeguard our territory from any interference" following the vote, while also acknowledging the complexity of the issue and stressing the need for the law to be specific and clear.

Opposition deputies from the PAN, PRI and Movimiento Ciudadano parties opposed the bill, citing legal ambiguity. PAN deputy Héctor Saúl Téllez said the reform remains "ambiguous, indeterminate, and without limits or clear concepts."

The bill, dubbed the Ley Monreal, was put forward by Morena's lower house leader Ricardo Monreal. Morena and its allies hold a two-thirds majority in the 500-seat Chamber of Deputies, enabling them to pass constitutional amendments without opposition support.
