MLG to promote abortion up-to-birth during Tuesday DNC speech

22 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham is set to deliver a prime-time speech at the Democrat National Convention (DNC) on Tuesday evening in Chicago. The speech will focus on healthcare issues, a controversial topic for the far-left governor. 

While Lujan Grisham enjoys her position in the national spotlight as she auditions for a potential posting in the nonexistent Harris regime, it’s essential to reflect on her contentious record, particularly her harsh pandemic lockdowns and extreme abortion stance.

Lujan Grisham is no stranger to the DNC stage, having spoken remotely at the 2020 convention from a solar array in New Mexico as she had New Mexico under cruel lockdowns during COVID-19. 

Her lockdown measures were some of the most severe in the nation, shuttering businesses and keeping families separated for months on end. While the governor claimed these measures were necessary, many New Mexicans suffered immensely, with businesses permanently closing and countless livelihoods disrupted. She also repeatedly flouted these lockdown orders, in one case, to buy jewelry at a shuttered business she had reopened just for her.

Despite the harsh pandemic measures, Lujan Grisham seems more focused on her radical agenda, particularly her obsession with abortion. She has staunchly advocated for abortion up to birth, the most radical stance possible. 

In 2021, she signed a bill overturning New Mexico’s long-dormant state abortion protections, effectively making the state a hub for late-term abortions. Lujan Grisham’s priorities have consistently aligned with radical pro-abortion policies, ignoring the values of many in her state.

On Tuesday, Lujan Grisham will share the stage with high-profile Democrats like Barack and Michelle Obama at the United Center, once again positioning herself as a national figure. 

While her speech is expected to focus on health care, her record in New Mexico tells a different story—one of failed leadership during the pandemic and a fixation on abortion at the expense of other critical issues, such as crime, which she has only recently begun to focus on as Albuquerque ranks 20th most deadly city in the world.

In addition to her speech, Lujan Grisham will participate in a panel discussion with actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus and other female Democrat governors on Wednesday. While the governor enjoys the attention of the national stage, her record in New Mexico is a stark reminder of the damage caused by her lockdown policies and her extreme stance on abortion.

New Mexico continues to struggle with a shortage of healthcare providers, and Lujan Grisham’s administration has attempted to address this by recruiting abortion doctors and pro-abortion nurses from Texas. However, her policies—particularly during the pandemic—have done little to resolve the state’s chronic healthcare challenges. Under her leadership, malpractice insurance skyrocketed for doctors, forcing countless providers to flee to other states where they would not be sued into bankruptcy due to New Mexico’s sue-happy laws that favor trial attorneys — not patients or providers. 

Lujan Grisham’s political ambitions have always been clear, and her national presence at the DNC further cements her continued attempt for the spotlight. However, New Mexicans must not forget the consequences of her policies: brutal lockdowns that harmed businesses and communities and her unwavering commitment to an abortion-up-to-birth agenda that remains out of step with many in her state.

As MLG mandates EVs, NM’s ‘incentives’ pale in comparison to other states

16 Comments / New Mexico, Politics / By

New Mexico offers various taxpayer-funded incentives to push expensive electric vehicles (EVs) and benefit the wealthy who can afford them, but how do these programs compare to those in other states? While New Mexico’s incentives are appealing, they thankfully lag behind more aggressive measures in other regions.

New Mexico’s Powering New Mexico initiative provides a $500 credit for installing Level 2 EV charging stations and up to $1,500 in installation assistance. For income-eligible residents, the state also offers an additional $750 rebate for purchasing a charger and up to $3,500 to help offset installation costs. Utility companies like Xcel Energy and El Paso Electric sweeten the deal with rebates for dedicated circuits and discounts for charging during off-peak hours. 

The average cost of a traditional electric vehicle is $56,648, while the average electric truck costs around ​​$74,868. 

While these taxpayer-funded subsidies minimally reduce the cost of the expensive EV, which costs more to maintain, they pale in comparison to more aggressive programs in states like California and Colorado. California, for example, offers up to $7,500 in rebates through the Clean Vehicle Rebate Project (CVRP), and low-income residents can stack federal and state rebates to receive over $30,000 in total incentives. California also provides significant rebates for installing home chargers, with some local programs offering up to $2,000 for EV charging equipment.

Colorado’s rebate program is also particularly generous, offering up to $5,000 for the purchase or lease of an EV and up to $12,000 for heavy-duty electric trucks. Colorado also offers additional support for low-income residents, providing up to $6,000 toward the purchase of a new EV through its Vehicle Exchange Colorado program, along with rebates for installing home charging stations.

New Mexico’s incentives do not reach the levels seen in these states. In comparison, the Land of Enchantment’s rebate caps are relatively low.

Another key issue is the impact on taxpayers. In states like California and Colorado, EV incentives are designed to target a wide range of residents, from low-income to high-earning households. However, New Mexico’s programs seem to disproportionately benefit those who can already afford high-priced electric vehicles while leaving lower-income residents with fewer options. EVs remain expensive, and without substantial rebates, they are out of reach for many New Mexicans — but most consumers, regardless of income, are not interested in EVs despite mandates by Democrat Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham to push them on the populous. 

Additionally, New Mexico’s incentives for home charging infrastructure are smaller than those in other states, which means residents may still face significant out-of-pocket costs to install charging stations. In contrast, California’s robust local programs often cover much of the cost for home charging stations, particularly for low-income households.

Pro-gun group takes on Lujan Grisham’s unconstitutional gun ban

13 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

The Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) has filed a critical brief with the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals in its ongoing lawsuit, Fort v. Grisham, challenging New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham’s prohibition on carrying firearms in public parks and playgrounds. The detailed brief is available for review here.

This legal action follows a July 24th Order from the Tenth Circuit, which required the parties involved to submit supplemental briefs addressing three specific questions regarding the appeal’s posture. 

In response, FPC’s brief argues, “[A]fter accounting for the issues the Court has raised, it remains the case that the Court should reverse the decision below and order entry of an injunction against the challenged provisions of the Governor’s order.”

The brief highlights the ongoing harm caused by the Governor’s ban, stating, “Plaintiffs have also declared that they will visit parks that are not covered by those ordinances, and regardless, the threat of prosecution under the Governor’s carry ban alone supports irreparable harm and standing.” It emphasizes that the ban causes significant harm to the plaintiffs, which can be remedied through a preliminary injunction.

Oral arguments for the case are set for September 25, 2024. This case is a component of FPC’s high-impact FPC Law strategic litigation program, which aims to challenge and overturn what it views as immoral laws to promote maximal individual liberty. 

The litigation is supported by an individual FPC member, the Second Amendment Foundation, and the New Mexico Shooting Sports Association.

Firearms Policy Coalition is a 501(c)(4) nonprofit membership organization dedicated to defending constitutional rights and advancing personal freedoms. Its FPC Law program is a leading legal initiative focused on restoring the right to keep and bear arms across the United States.

​​Billions of tax dollars at risk as MLG doubles down on bankrolling failing solar

20 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

Far-left Democrat Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham remains determined to invest New Mexicans’ tax dollars into the solar industry, despite the sector facing significant financial challenges. Recent efforts to support solar companies with substantial subsidies have raised concerns as these investments appear increasingly risky.

One of the key initiatives involved a partnership with Maxeon Solar, a company that was slated to receive over $2.4 billion in subsidies from various levels of New Mexico’s government. This initiative was part of a broader push to promote “renewable energy” under the industrial policies of the Biden-Harris Administration, which included federal and state incentives. However, despite these massive financial commitments, the Maxeon project has encountered delays, and there is growing skepticism about whether the factory will materialize anytime soon—if at all.

Maxeon’s financial health has deteriorated significantly over the past year. On August 9, 2024, the company’s stock was valued at just 16 cents per share, a staggering 99% decline from its price of $22 per share when the deal was initially announced on August 10, 2023, per analysis from the Rio Grande Foundation. 

Even at that time, the stock had already seen a sharp drop from its peak of over $50 per share. The company’s financial struggles are further highlighted by its negative earnings per share (EPS) of -$8.03, signaling ongoing losses.

Undeterred by Maxeon’s setbacks, Lujan Grisham recently inked another deal with a different solar company, “Ebon,” which is based in communist China. New Mexico taxpayers are expected to contribute at least $11 million to back this new venture, although the full extent of the subsidy package has not yet been disclosed by the governor’s administration. 

However, Ebon is facing its own financial difficulties. The company’s stock price has plummeted from $388 per share in 2021 to just under $6 per share in 2024, marking a 98.5% decline. Like Maxeon, Ebon also reports negative earnings, with an EPS of -$5.86.

These developments have sparked concern among critics who question the wisdom of pouring significant taxpayer dollars into struggling solar companies. As the solar industry continues to grapple with financial instability, the effectiveness of these investments in driving sustainable economic growth in New Mexico remains uncertain.

MLG squanders more taxpayer cash trying to lure pro-abortion docs. to NM

21 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

Advertisements in Sunday’s Austin American-Statesman, Dallas Morning News, and Fort Worth Star-Telegram invite pro-abortion Texas medical professionals to consider relocating to New Mexico due to Texas’ life-affirming laws that protect women, babies in the womb, and medical professionals.

These taxpayer-funded ads feature an open letter from far-left, pro-abortion Democrat New Mexico Gov. Lujan Grisham, urging pro-abortion Texas doctors to move to New Mexico if they are unable to practice under Texas’ life-affirming laws. Similar advertisements have appeared in the Houston Chronicle and the San Antonio Express-News.

“I know that legal restrictions on healthcare in Texas have created a heavy burden for medical practitioners—especially those of you now barred by law from providing the full spectrum of reproductive healthcare,” the letter states. “It must be distressing that a draconian abortion ban has restricted your right to practice and turned it into a political weapon.”

Additionally, six billboards with the message “free to provide” have been placed around the Houston Medical Center, encouraging medical professionals to relocate to New Mexico.

In her letter, Grisham emphasizes that New Mexico lawmakers are “fiercely committed to protecting medical freedoms here and we’re taking steps to ensure that what happened in Texas never happens in New Mexico.”

After Roe v. Wade was overturned, Texas passed a law protecting life in the womb, with exceptions. This law has led to a 99.89% decrease in abortions in the state. Multiple legal challenges have been filed, but the Texas Supreme Court rejected one such lawsuit in May.

Abortion remains legal up to the date of birth in New Mexico. Recently, Gov. Grisham has taken steps to push for Texans to abort their young in New Mexico, including legislation firming up the state’s pro-abortion up-to-birth laws. 

Gov. Grisham has also allocated $10 million to establish a new abortion facility near the Texas border, which Democrats rammed through in 2023’s capital outlay bill, despite Republican and Democrat opposition.

“You have my word: I will never interfere with the fundamental right of health workers to care for their patients in New Mexico,” Grisham wrote, despite during COVID-19 forcibly jabbing nurses, doctors, residents, and all other medical professionals, or they would lose their jobs.

She also interfered with bodily autonomy in a myriad of ways, including lockdowns and mask mandates that carried heavy fines for noncompliance, among other draconian measures that heavily restricted New Mexicans’ bodily autonomy.

“Whether you are a nurse, a resident, a physician assistant, or a doctor, we cordially and enthusiastically invite you to the Land of Enchantment, where you are free to care for your patients.”

On the New Mexico Department of Health website, pregnant children are encouraged to abort their babies in the womb, with it reading, “Abortion is legal in New Mexico. People over the age of 13 can get an abortion without permission from their parents.”

As Lujan Grisham mandates EVs, sales continue to crater

30 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

Democrat Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham’s administration in New Mexico has faced significant criticism for its focus on electric vehicle (EV) mandates while the state struggles with increasing crime rates. The governor’s ambitious plan requires that 43% of all new vehicle sales be electric by 2026, a target that appears increasingly unrealistic given current trends in EV adoption and the state’s pressing public safety concerns, per the Rio Grande Foundation.

Recent data indicates that consumer interest in EVs in New Mexico is lukewarm, with EV registrations declining to 4.59% in the first quarter of 2024. This is significantly lower than the state’s ambitious target and suggests a disconnect between the administration’s goals and consumer preferences. Critics argue that the high cost of EVs, coupled with a lack of infrastructure, makes them inaccessible to many residents, especially given New Mexico’s median household income of around $56,420, which falls below the average cost of an EV​​.

This issue is not unique to New Mexico. Similar trends have been observed in other states with stringent EV mandates, such as Washington, where sales have also fallen short of targets. The challenge of pushing EVs in a market where consumer interest is tepid raises questions about the practicality of such mandates​​.

Moreover, the focus on EVs comes at a time when New Mexico faces significant crime-related issues. The state has seen rising crime rates, and many residents feel that public safety should be a more immediate priority. 

Gov. Lujan Grisham called a special legislative session to address these concerns, proposing measures such as changes to the state’s criminal competency laws and increased penalties for certain offenses, but within five hours, Democrats moved to adjourn without passing any meaningful crime measures except the bill to fund the session, which tacked on funds for assisted outpatient treatment. 

However, the governor’s EV push has overshadowed these efforts, leading to criticism that her administration’s priorities are misplaced​​.

Local car dealers also face challenges due to the mandate, as they are now forced to pivot toward selling EVs despite consumers not wanting to buy them. This situation could impact sales and profitability, particularly in a state where many residents may not have the financial means to purchase higher-cost EVs, not to mention the state being so rural, that EVs are not practical for traveling long distances. 

As New Mexico approaches the deadline for the EV mandate, uncertainty looms. However, it is clear that people do not want to buy these vehicles.

NM House Speaker implies MLG’s focus on public safety for the ‘TV cameras’

9 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

In a recent social media post, Democrat New Mexico House Speaker Javier Martinez took a critical stance against Democrat Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham, suggesting that her emphasis on addressing crime was primarily for the sake of “tv cameras (sic).” Martinez’s comments come in the aftermath of a failed special legislative session aimed at tackling public safety issues, which concluded abruptly after just five hours without passing significant crime-related bills.

The special session, called by Lujan Grisham earlier this month, was intended to address pressing concerns regarding crime, including repeat offenders and public safety measures. 

However, the session ended without progress on the proposed agenda, leading to frustration among legislators and constituents alike, with Democrats unwilling to remain in Santa Fe to pass any meaningful legislation to assist with the crime epidemic.

“We can’t put the cart before the horse or criminalize people for being unhoused. We’ll continue rebuilding our systems & stay true to our NM values of compassion for ALL our neighbors. Public safety work must go on, even when the tv cameras (sic) stop – we’re back at it in CCJ on 8/12,” he wrote, referring to the Legislative Courts, Corrections, and Justice Committee.

Lujan Grisham has been vocal in recent months about the need for tougher measures against crime, particularly targeting repeat violent offenders. However, critics argue that her approach lacks the necessary legislative support and consensus to implement effective policies. 

The brief duration of the special session, which adjourned without substantial progress, highlights the challenges in reaching consensus on contentious issues such as criminal justice reform.

The discord between legislative leaders and the governor’s office reflects broader disagreements over the best approaches to tackle crime in the state. 

The political dynamics surrounding crime policy in New Mexico are likely to remain contentious as stakeholders seek consensus, as Lujan Grisham travels around the state attempting to get community support for her initiatives.

‘Keep their a**es in jail!’ MLG slammed over failed crime policy at ABQ town hall

13 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

At a town hall meeting on Monday night at Central New Mexico Community College, New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham faced intense scrutiny from residents, including poignant testimony from Sally Sanchez, who lost her son Antonio Jaramillo to violence in 2020. Sanchez shared her heartache directly with the governor, saying, “I, Governor, am the one with a life sentence. I will never get to hear my son’s voice again.”

Sanchez, co-founder of the New Mexico Crusaders for Justice, urged the governor to address concerns about the revolving door of repeat violent offenders. Her advocacy group, which supports families affected by murder, joined several others in pressing for stronger measures to keep repeat offenders behind bars.

Governor Lujan Grisham responded by acknowledging the issue, stating, “Too many cases are not being prosecuted.” She emphasized the need to enhance the justice system to ensure “dangerous people who are convicted of crimes stay in jail until they’re held accountable” while also investing in prevention programs.

This town hall was part of a series aimed at tackling public safety concerns. Lujan Grisham’s earlier town hall in Las Cruces lasted five hours and attracted over 500 attendees. The final town hall is set for Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. in Española at the Northern New Mexico College Event Center.

During Monday’s event, Lujan Grisham was joined by a panel including Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller, APS Chief Harold Medina, and Bernalillo County Sheriff John Allen — all Democrats. The meeting, which extended nearly four hours, allowed the governor to hear directly from the public about their concerns, ranging from mental health services to criminal justice reform.

Attendees voiced frustration over what they perceived as ineffective responses to crime. One participant, expressing dissatisfaction with the pace of legislative action, said, “I’m tired of people getting like strategies, strategies, strategies. It’s like a football team you’re out there in the huddle you’re all strategizing, yet nobody says ‘Break let’s get out there on the field and actually do the work.’”

The governor also faced interruptions from five young protesters who repeatedly disrupted the meeting to protest U.S. involvement in the Israel-Hamas conflict before being escorted out by police.

William Davis, who survived a shooting in Albuquerque 25 years ago, called for a reconsideration of the Bill Davis Kids, Car and Crime Law, which was overturned by the New Mexico Supreme Court after an ACLU lawsuit.

Lujan Grisham had previously proposed several public safety bills during a special legislative session earlier this month, including measures to address panhandling and reduce criminal offenses among individuals deemed incompetent to stand trial. 

However, the Legislature only passed a funding bill for wildfire relief and mental health programs, leaving her other proposals unaddressed.

The governor has until August 7 to sign the funding bill, which authorizes $100 million for wildfire relief and $3 million for expanding a judicial mental health program.

State Rep. Stefani Lord (R-Sandia Park), who was at the town hall, wrote on social media, “Tensions are high here at the Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham crime town hall. The meeting started with interruptions and booing. People are angry and sick of the crime!”

She added, “It is surreal to hear the Governor discussing bills I have presented, like pretrial detention, to address crime.  Yet, how many years have MLG and the radical Dems REFUSED to pass anything to protect the citizens of New Mexico? And now, all of a sudden, crime is an issue in an election year? Where the hell has MLG been all these years? Why do the radical progressives want criminals loose on the streets to re-offend? Why do they REFUSE to listen to the people? It’s time to stop screwing the people with partisan politics and pass common-sense crime bills!”

As the governor prepares for the final town hall in Española, she continues to grapple with public outrage over the lack of action on crime during her over-six-year tenure.

Alternate reality: MLG says everything is fine at border czar Kamala Harris’ border

22 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

In a Sunday appearance on “Face the Nation,” New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham faced scrutiny over her responses to questions about the state’s handling of the border crisis. Despite mounting evidence and concerns from residents and officials in other border states, Lujan Grisham’s defensive posture and dismissive remarks about the crisis have drawn significant criticism.

During the interview, Robert Costa questioned the governor about the Biden administration’s border policies and her role in addressing the issues. Lujan Grisham claimed, “Right now, border crossings are as low as they’ve ever been, certainly lower than they were in the Trump administration.”

This false assertion starkly contrasts with reports indicating ongoing challenges at the border, including increased encounters and a strain on local resources. The Center Square reported, “Accounting for all the data, including new ways the Biden administration is allowing foreign nationals to enter the country, the claims are verifiably false.”

Since Biden took power, at least 10 million illegal aliens have traveled illegally across the southern border. Since also since Biden took office in January 2021, fentanyl-related deaths have skyrocketed. In 2021 alone, there were over 71,000 deaths involving synthetic opioids, primarily fentanyl. The crisis continued into 2022, with fentanyl being involved in nearly 70% of all drug overdose deaths, totaling approximately 73,838 deaths for the year.

However, Gov. Lujan Grisham has failed to take any measures to secure New Mexico’s border. Unlike all other border-state governors — Democrat and Republican — who have implemented stricter security protocols, Lujan Grisham has not committed to similar actions, leaving New Mexico vulnerable to the ramifications of inadequate border control. Her refusal to acknowledge the severity of the situation and to implement robust measures has been a point of contention.

When pressed about the need for more Border Patrol agents, Lujan Grisham deflected, attributing the lack of resources to Congressional inaction. She stated, “They [Republicans] did not do anything to pass a bipartisan border deal that put 1,500 more Border Patrol and 1,200 more ICE agents.” The so-called “deal” she referred to would have given mass amnesty to millions of criminal aliens entering the country illegally, a non-starter. 

However, facts show that this response overlooks her administration’s responsibility in advocating for and securing necessary resources to protect the state and its residents due to her pulling of the National Guard from the border and refusal to consider legislation to assist with the humanitarian crisis, which has opened up a channel for deadly fentanyl to kill countless citizens.

She then praised Joe Biden’s border czar, Kamala Harris, saying, “Hispanic voters here want is a prosecutor who’s got a history in a border state dealing with border and immigration issues that can cause risk, like her prosecution successfully and transnational gangs on drugs and guns.”

“And this is the second time we’ve seen Trump and his cast of characters be really clear. They don’t want immigration reform. They want fear, they want division, they’re going to continue to demonize Hispanics and Latinos and immigrant communities. And you know what they see? They see someone who’s tough, fair, balanced, pragmatic, and somebody they can relate to in terms of her own family. That motivates Hispanic voters,” she added. 

When asked about Harris being in charge of the border catastrophe, she said, “Well, as a straight shooter, thank you, Robert, and thank you, New Mexico voters. We have to be engaged in better diplomacy in Central America and South America. She did that very effectively.”

Lujan Grisham’s handling of the border issue is a stark disconnect from the realities faced by many in New Mexico and other border states. A recent FBI report noted the border crisis’ effect on higher crime in New Mexico. Her interview highlighted a concerning lack of urgency and proactive measures to address the complex challenges posed by the border crisis. This stance has led to growing frustration among constituents who feel that their concerns are being dismissed or minimized by state leadership.

MLG admin. cooks up scheme to lure pro-abortion, ‘gender-affirming’ docs.

4 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

The New Mexico Department of Health has launched a multi-state campaign aimed at attracting pro-abortion and “gender-affirming” healthcare professionals to New Mexico, per a report from the Santa Fe New Mexican.

“Every day we’re looking for ways to try to attract more people to New Mexico to meet the health care needs of our state,” Health Sec. Patrick Allen said. He emphasized that states like Texas and Arizona create a political and legal environment where healthcare providers are restricted from mutilating children and aborting babies up to birth.

The “Free to Provide” campaign, lasting one month, features online advertisements on social media in metropolitan areas of Texas and Arizona, as well as six billboards in the Medical Center Area of Houston, according to department spokesman Robert Nott, who formerly was a reporter at the New Mexican. 

The campaign cost approximately $350,000 and includes a dedicated website, freetoprovidenm.org, where healthcare workers can find information about New Mexico job opportunities, including links to the state’s Health Professional Loan Repayment Program and the Rural Health Care Practitioner Tax Credit Program.

In total, the state partnered with around three dozen New Mexico hospitals and clinics, consolidating and linking their job postings on the campaign’s website, organized into five regions for easy navigation. 

Allen highlighted the collaborative effort, saying, “They were enthusiastic. They’re like us — they’re interested in trying to hire good people, and anything that we can do to make their job openings more visible is a benefit to them.”

New Mexico has faced a shortage of healthcare workers for years, requiring thousands more hires to reach a standard provider-to-population ratio, according to a 2023 report from the New Mexico Health Care Workforce Committee.

At the end of the four-week campaign, the department will assess its impact and consider extending or expanding the campaign to other southwestern states if necessary. 

Allen reiterated the campaign’s goal, stating, “We need more of everything everywhere, whether it’s primary care providers or OBGYNs in Albuquerque or practitioners in rural parts of the state. We’re really trying to aim at that notion of, ‘This is a good place to practice, it’s a good place to live, and you can come here and practice without some of the risks and concerns that you face in other states.’”

What was not mentioned in the ad is the cost of malpractice insurance in the state, which previously was astronomical, has been reduced to a more manageable — yet expensive — level.
