MEXICO CITY (Reuters) – Mexico’s Congress will likely be able to pass a constitutional reform abolishing certain autonomous institutions by mid-November, the lower house’s leader said on Monday.

The reform “will probably come out some time between Nov. 11 and 14,” lower house leader for the ruling Morena party, Ricardo Monreal, said in a press conference.
