MEXICO CITY (Reuters) -Mexico's lower house of Congress approved a measure on Wednesday that makes changes to the constitution "unchallengeable" as ruling party Morena and allies push through a swath of constitutional reforms, including a controversial judicial overhaul.
The measure, which the Senate passed last week, received 340 votes in favor, 133 against and 1 abstention. The government's coalition enjoys large majorities in both chambers.
