New Mexico Democrat governor issues public health order temporarily suspending open and conceal carry laws in Albuquerque
[BLAZE] New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham announced in a media briefing Friday afternoon that open and conceal carry laws in the city of Albuquerque and the surrounding county were being suspended for 30 days.The Democrat said that several incidents involving young children being shot led her to announce the emergency public health order. Senate Republican Leader Greg Baca lambasted the governor for the order. "A child is murdered, the perpetrator is still on the loose, and what does the governor do? She throws the mayor of Albuquerque under the bus and then targets law-abiding citizens with an unconstitutional gun order," said Baca. "Tragically, this is what we have come to expect from an administration that refuses to take responsibility for the crime epidemic gripping our state. It is time for the governor to stop pointing fingers and admit that her soft-on-crime approach has failed and put the safety of all New Mexicans in great jeopardy."
