With 23 votes in favor, 12 against and one abstention, the Tamaulipas state legislature became the last in Mexico to give the green light to same-sex marriage.
During the session, activists and members of the LGBT+ community waved flags of sexual diversity inside the Tamaulipas Congress building. At the same time, representatives of religious groups interrupted the session with songs, forcing legislators to move to another room to continue the discussion and take the vote.
