Check translation:

In May, Buenos Aires’ legislative body condemned a law which allowed incineration of waste in the city. FACCyR, working in conjunction with various waste picker cooperatives and civil society organizations, and drawing from an appeal for protection, got the Justice to momentarily suspend the law.
