Dozens of farmers brought traffic to a halt Wednesday as they blocked access to the Congress of the Union in Mexico City, protesting a proposal to overhaul the National Water Law. The farmers argue the reform, which includes stricter controls on water concessions and use, threatens their livelihoods and chips away at what they call a fundamental right for all Mexicans: access to water.
