The Mexican government has directed broadcasters to ban advertisements from the Trump administration featuring Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, labeling the campaign against illegal immigration as "propaganda." In response to these ads, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced plans to request Congress to amend the telecommunications law to prevent foreign governments from purchasing television spots that influence domestic affairs. Sheinbaum specifically aims to strengthen the law to prohibit foreign governments from airing discriminatory messages on Mexican TV and radio. Although there was a claim that the 2014 telecommunications reform already included a provision banning political propaganda from foreign governments, no official record of such an article has been found. The move comes after the Trump administration ran anti-immigration ads on Mexican television, prompting Mexico to take steps to restrict foreign political advertising.
