‘Requests to create protocols for protection of the LGBT+ community in Torreon.’ 

Deputy Flor Estela Renteria Medina asked the National Council to Prevent Discrimination, to activate the protocols in order to pay attention and to protect the LGBT+ community in Torreon,
Coahuila, because of some alleged discriminatory actions the mayor Jorge Zermeño practiced.
