As construction begins on a taxpayer-funded abortion facility in southern New Mexico, pro-life organizations across the state are mobilizing in what they describe as a historic show of unity.
A newly formed coalition of pro-life leaders announced plans to gather on April 10 in Albuquerque, bringing together organizations from across New Mexico in response to the state’s expansion of abortion services, including a $10 million facility currently under development in Las Cruces.
Organizers say the project represents a significant shift in the state’s approach to abortion policy. The facility is expected not only to provide abortion services but also to serve as a training center for abortion providers, with the stated goal of expanding access nationwide.
The development comes as New Mexico has emerged as one of the most permissive states in the country for abortion following the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision, which overturned Roe v. Wade. According to organizers, the number of abortions performed in the state has more than tripled since 2020, with a majority now involving out-of-state patients.
The new coalition, supported by the Knights of Columbus, aims to unify efforts among various pro-life groups that have historically operated independently. Leaders say the April 10 event is intended to mark a turning point in how those organizations coordinate and advocate moving forward.
“There are moments in history when silence is not an option — and this is one of them,” said Anthony Salazar, State Deputy of the New Mexico State Council of the Knights of Columbus. “What is being built in Las Cruces is a moral crisis, and on April 10 we stand as one.”
The gathering is also drawing national attention due to the involvement of Iowa-based pro-life strategist Chuck Hurley, who will deliver the keynote address. Hurley played a key role in building a coalition of organizations in Iowa that proponents say led to significant legislative changes, including restrictions on abortion and other policy shifts.
“For over twenty-six years, we saw no fruit at the Iowa Capitol on life issues—none,” Hurley said. “But once our leaders took this particular action to stand together, the victories started coming almost immediately.”
Supporters of the New Mexico coalition say they are looking to replicate that model, emphasizing coordination and shared strategy as a way to influence policy in a state where pro-life efforts have faced significant legislative challenges.
Mark Cavaliere of Life Leadership Conference, a national organization supporting the effort, said the New Mexico initiative could serve as a model for other states.
“What happened in Iowa proves that when pro-life leaders stop working in isolation and make a public commitment to stand together, the results can be historic,” Cavaliere said.
The coalition’s formation comes as pro-abortion Democrat Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham has signaled continued support for expanding abortion access, including a request for an additional $10 million to fund a second facility in northern New Mexico.
Organizers say the April 10 event will be livestreamed, with the goal of reaching supporters across the state and beyond via ProLifeNM.com.
As both sides continue to mobilize, the issue is expected to remain a central point of debate in New Mexico, reflecting broader national divisions over abortion policy in the post-Dobbs era.
Finally!!!
Moochie Loserjan is the best example of the need for retroactive birth control!!!
It is crazy that the best NM can do is kill babies. It cannot teach our children, it cannot make jobs for our young adults, it cannot properly manage our tax dollars. There is a slew of other things that NM is in the bottom 4 of the worst states. But at least we are good at something the sad thing is it is killing innocent children.
Why are NM taxpayers funding MLG killing babies or doing abortions????????????????????? Is she trying to make NM the abortion capital of the USA? Murder at Taxpayers expense. Good going gov. MLG deals with EVIL and New Mexicans are paying for it. That is disgusting and Satanic.
You are correct. Abortion Capital of the USA is what she wants. In most stories people try to kill Satan.
I don’t understand why Trump hails that Dobbs decision as a “great victory”. Maybe a win for states rights but not for the murdered babies as that number has increased nearly 20,000 month since that decision. All those involved in this butchery have failed to grasp an important fact…..when they are buried under 6 feet of dirt their ill gotten gains will do them no good. Repent now for the Kingdom of God is at hand.
AMEN!!!
Using Tax Dollars? Why?
How much in Federal funding is being used?
New Mexico must be Audited NOW!
FRAUDULENT ACTIVITIES RUN RAMPANT IN NEW MEXICO!
The picture of MLG in her Pink outfit brings out the demonic eye contact with her audience. Look closely at the picture…She has sold her soul to the devil. Very scary.
She will stand before her Creator who is our judge and avenger.
Keeping the pro life supporters in my prayers. And if you look at the picture, it is a picture of pure evil. These people who support the evil act of torture and murder of babies will pay the price come judgement day. For sure (unless the repent and change their ways and seek Jesus of salvation) God will throw them into the lake of fire.
Praying that the Lord touch the hearts of the women who consider the act of murdering their baby in the womb, they feel the presence of the Lord and turn from doing the evil act of torture and murder of their baby in the womb.
MLG is a prime example of the need for retroactive abortion.
WHY did we have to vote to approve a bond for a $6 million dollar Senior living facility….but not a $10 million dollar baby killing factor?
WHY wouldn’t we get to vote on that as well?
Is it because it WOULDN’T HAVE PASSED?
EVIL….this entity is pure evil.
Evil has to be stopped with any means possible.
The people of New Mexico donor want abortion clinics. Stop the killing now. Jesus our lord protect the children.
Do not want.
Abhorrent that we all have to PAY for this disgrace. Its offensive to force the people of New Mexico to fund an abortion center when most believe this is against the laws of God. But that governor is not looking out for the people of New Mexico.
The demoNcrats are the party of abortion and infanticide. Let’s see they were also the party of Indian removal, slavery, jim crow, and the KKK.
I hope this coalition is able to do something. And I pray God strikes down every abortion mill in the World.
It’s a shame that the democrat lack of leadership in New Mexico not only condone the evils of abortionbut they celebrate those evils. They spend taxpayer money to recruit doctors from out of state to come here to perform abortions and they spend our money to build a building designed for the sole purpose of murdering the unborn. They’ll spend tax dollars to murder the unborn and to protect illegals ( some of whom are murders themselves ) but they won’t spend money to bring in doctors who actually want to save lives. It is no wonder that New Mexico under performs many third world countries. Shame on those who evil policies on us!
