New Mexico U.S. Democratic Representatives Melanie Stansbury (CD 1) and Teresa Leger Fernandez (CD 3) were among those Democrats who opposed the resolution.   The act was passed by a vote of 266-158, with every present Republican voting in favor.   This isn’t the first time Rep. Stansbury and Leger Fernandez have voted to protect illegal immigrants who commit crimes in the U.S. They, along with Rep. Gabe Vasquez, voted against the Laken Riley Act, which would allow the Department of Homeland Security to detain certain illegal immigrants who have been arrested for burglary, theft, larceny, or shoplifting. The legislation was named after Laken Riley, who was tragically murdered by an illegal immigrant who was convicted of crimes in New York and Georgia but was re-released into the U.S. by the Biden/Harris administration.   All three New Mexico Democratic representatives have refused to condemn Biden and Harris’s open-border policies, which have led to numerous female and child victims, including the following: Jocelyn Nungaray, a 12-year-old girl, was brutally and sexually assaulted for two hours before being murdered by two Venezuelan illegal immigrant suspects. Dayana Garcia, a 25-year-old woman, was found in her house murdered by an illegal immigrant suspect who entered the country under the Harris/Biden administration. Kayla Hamilton, a 20-year-old woman, was raped and strangled to death by an illegal immigrant suspect with ties to the MS-13 gang. Rachel Morin, a 37-year-old mother of five, was raped, beaten to death, and stuffed in a drain pipe by an illegal immigrant suspect who came into our country during the Harris/Biden administration. Recently, a Venezuelan gang member was charged with Domestic Disorderly Conduct, two counts of Domestic Battery, Strangulation/Suffocation, Physical Abuse to a Child, Disorderly Conduct, and two counts of 2nd Degree Sexual Assault. A Salvadorian illegal immigrant was arrested after it was discovered he had kept two young boys locked up in chains inside a home. A Bolivian illegal immigrant was arrested and released multiple times over the last few months was finally arrested by ICE officials for seven felony counts of child pornography and possession of obscene material with a minor.   “Anyone with common sense and decency is wondering how someone could vote to protect illegal immigrants from deportation who have committed violent and sexually abusive acts against women and children while denying their victims the right to safety and justice,” said Republican Party of New Mexico Spokeswoman Ash Soular.“Democratic Representatives Melanie Stansbury and Teresa Leger Fernandez should be ashamed of themselves for putting the rights of illegal immigrants who commit horrendous crimes above the safety of New Mexico women and children. They have proven themselves unfit to represent our state, and New Mexicans must hold them accountable with their vote at the ballot box this November.” ### The Republican Party of New Mexico (RPNM) advances the ideals of individual liberties for the advancement of its citizens and the greater prosperity of our communities throughout New Mexico.

NM DEM Reps Vote Against Proof of Citizenship to Vote—Again. ALBUQUERQUE, SEPTEMBER 19—Yesterday, Congress took up a vote on a Continuing Appropriations bill that would avert a government shutdown for six months and would also implement the SAVE Act, a piece of legislation that will require proof of citizenship to register to vote ahead of the General Election.   All three of New Mexico’s U.S. Democratic Representatives, Gabe Vasquez (CD 2), Melanie Stansbury (CD 1), and Teresa Leger Fernandez (CD 3), voted against the appropriations bill. This is the second time all three Democratic Representatives voted against legislation that included proof of citizenship to register to vote in U.S. elections.   Additionally, all three representatives have previously voted against condemning non-citizens voting in state elections, against legislation to hold illegal immigrants who commit crimes in our country accountable, and against tough border security bills.   Many states have already found and removed thousands of non-citizens from their voter rolls, despite Democrats denying that non-citizens are registering to vote.   The Republican Party of New Mexico Chairman Steve Pearce issued the following statement:   “Despite all the talk about protecting democracy, Representatives Gabe Vasquez, Melanie Stansbury and Teresa Leger Fernandez threw away another opportunity to safeguard the integrity of our elections. New Mexicans want to be certain that only U.S. citizens vote in the upcoming election, but unfortunately, their representatives continue to cater to the far-left, anti-America wing of their party. Requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote is a common-sense measure that should not be controversial especially when New Mexico’s Democratic representatives have enabled 10 million people to enter our country illegally. If New Mexicans are fed up with being put last and want strong borders, secure elections and safe streets, vote Republican up and down the ballot this November.” Copyright (C) 2024 Republican Party of New Mexico.

Op-Ed: Progressive Dems are One-Trick Ponies

We want to share this well-written op-ed from Elaine Sena Cortez, titled Progressive Dems are one-trick ponies.   Scroll down to continue to read.

My View Elaine Sena Cortez Progressive Dems are one-trick ponies By Elaine Sena Cortez    With under two months before the November election, many New Mexican voters are beginning to realize our state’s most urgent problems never seem to get fixed.   Our governor and the progressive majorities in the state Legislature don’t appear to be interested in offering workable solutions at a time when our state is facing the worst violent crime rate in the country; our public schools are consistently ranked last for student success; the crisis along our southern border has created a fentanyl epidemic that is killing too many New Mexicans; generational poverty threatens the long-term future of our families; and abused and neglected children are failing to receive the protection they deserve.   I believe progressive Democrats are wholly responsible for these problems since they have controlled the Legislature and the governor’s office for the last six years, yet they want to talk about one issue: abortion.   Of course, these progressives rarely say the word “abortion,” preferring to use euphemisms such as “reproductive rights” and “women’s health care” to soft-pedal the harsh reality that their entire agenda rests on ending the existence of an unborn child. Having no qualms about permitting abortions up until the moment of birth in New Mexico, progressive Democrats are conveniently never heard admitting that is their position.   There is something fundamentally wrong when the party charged with leading our state refuses to address the critical issues facing our state but has no reluctance to base their quest for political power almost solely on the backs of the unborn.   For far too long, Republican candidates have stayed silent regarding abortion and have hesitated to engage their progressive opponents on this sensitive issue. In turn, this silence has permitted progressives to define Republicans as being anti-women or not caring about women’s health care issues. Of course, these political accusations are false and based on fear-mongering and slander, as many Republican candidates are women themselves and are personally invested in women’s health care.   Unfortunately, this false narrative perpetuated by progressives has allowed them to take total control of the state and enact a devastating agenda that has made our state unrecognizable.   Abortion is an issue that requires real conversation: Should there be restrictions around viability? Should parents be notified if their minor child has an abortion? Should women be given all the information about available resources when making tough pregnancy-related decisions? Should taxpayers have to pay for something with which they morally disagree? Should New Mexico taxpayers be footing the bill for out-of-state residents to obtain abortions here?   The repeal of Roe v. Wade returned these and other policy questions to the states. Progressive Democrat lawmakers, however, have refused to consider any of these important questions. As a result, they have made New Mexico an abortion capital of the U.S.   Progressive Democrats have become one-trick political ponies, touting abortion every chance they get, so they don’t have to address the other crises in our state. If New Mexico voters continue to choose progressive candidates this November, then they have no excuse to complain about our failing schools, our neighborhoods becoming crime battlegrounds, our children suffering abuse and neglect, our crumbling health care system and opportunities for our kids and grandkids disappearing. They will have proven that their all-abortion, all-the-time strategy is all that’s needed to maintain their failed leadership.   Our state cannot afford a Democratic-controlled Legislature that continues turning a blind eye to every issue except abortion.   It is time to have real discussions about the issues facing our state, all of them.   Elaine Sena Cortez is the representative-elect from District 62 in the House of Representatives. She is from Hobbs.

To opt out of NRA-ILA Front Lines emails, click here   Last week, the U.S. District Court for the District of New Mexico denied a motion for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction in Ortega v. Grisham, the case challenging New Mexico’s law requiring a 7-day waiting period before an individual can take possession of a firearm they purchased.  To secure a win on this motion, the plaintiffs had to establish that they are likely to succeed on the merits of the case, that they are likely to suffer irreparable harm in the absence of preliminary relief, that the balance of equities tips in their favor, and that an injunction is in the public interest.  The court first determined that the plaintiffs are unlikely to succeed on the merits because (1) the Second Amendment does not protect purchasing firearms and (2) the waiting period law is consistent with discriminatory historical laws restricting firearms sales to slaves, freedmen, and American Indians. Because the court concluded that there was no violation of constitutional rights, the plaintiffs could not satisfy the remaining factors either. Therefore, the court denied the plaintiffs’ motion. The plaintiffs will now consider whether to appeal the decision to the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals or proceed on the merits in the district court.
