HOUSE APPROPRIATIONS AND FINANCE COMMITTEE
PATRICIA A. LUNDSTROM, CHAIR Monday, March 1, 2021 – 1:30 p.m.
H.B. 102 VIOLENCE INTERVENTION PROGRAM ACT by Rep. Gail Chasey (D-Bernalillo) is a taxpayer funds giveaway to anti-gun organizations – BAD
According to the New Mexico Shooting Sports Association, “This bill would also create a new government committee, ‘The Firearm Injury and Death Review Committee,’ which would be appointed and run by the New Mexico Department of Health. No members of the public would be a part of the new committee, the only member who would even be required to have an understanding of the operation of a firearm is the lone law-enforcement officer member. This committee would be given a budget of $10,000,000 – of your tax funds – a large part of which would go to ‘community-based’ organizations, a euphemism for anti-gun groups.”
