Spanish term

de rechazo

Spanish to English Other Government / Politics News, Noticias
"Destaca asimismo la voz de la Policía Comunitaria y la Coordinadora Regional de Autoridades Comunitarias (CRAC) de rechazo frente a diversas concesiones otorgadas en la Montaña de Guerrero..."

The context is about a report from Mexico regarding the situation of indigenous peoples in relation to mining companies. It is hard to provide more contextual quotations as the sentences are very long and cumbersome.

In this case, the phrase "de rechazo" does not seem to fit the sentence, unless it is being used in a way I am not aware of. Any help is much appreciated.

Spanish term (edited): (la voz...) de rechazo
