This week, truckers and farmers continued their protests with road blockades in various parts of the country, affecting the movement of thousands of vehicles. Here’s what you need to know about any demonstrations today, November 28, 2025, on Mexican highways.
In context: Truckers and farmers resumed their protests with road blockades to demand, primarily, greater security, better prices for their products, a halt to the reform of the National Water Law, and the approval of the new General Water Law, an initiative of Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum.
Truckers and farmers had already threatened the road blockades and carried them out starting Monday, November 24, 2025.
