Literally, the decree puts Ojinaga in UTC-6 and Juárez in UTC-7 during the DST period, rather than outside that period as intended. A senator warned about the mistake in the text, but the legislature rushed to pass it without a correction. The senator then asked the president to return it for a correction, but it was published as originally written. Now the senator is introducing a bill to make the correction, while other legislators exchange accusations. In Juárez, the authorities plan to change the time on November 30 anyway.

The law didn’t say anything about that; it just lists municipalities. Do these municipalities abut each other so we can use those boundaries?
