NM House Republican Campaign Committee

The New Mexico House Republican Campaign Committee is dedicated to taking back the House of Representatives in the New Mexico State Legislature.

Crazy land

[Rep Stefani Lord @Lord4NM]

🚨 NOT SO FAST.

I’m seeing the victory laps over New Mexico’s unconstitutional 7-day waiting period, including gun rights groups

READ THE ACTUAL JUDGMENT.

The Tenth Circuit rejected New Mexico’s waiting-period law under the Second Amendment.

But yesterday, Judge James Browning entered final judgment enjoining the State from enforcing the law “against Ortega and Scott.”

Those two plaintiffs.

That’s what the judgment says.

So unless I’m missing something, declaring “WE WON!” for every gun owner in New Mexico is a little premature.

If the State’s position is that the 7-day waiting period remains enforceable against everyone else, then apparently we have arrived at the bizarre place where:

🔹 The Tenth Circuit says the waiting period fails the constitutional analysis.

🔹 The federal district court says it is bound by the Tenth Circuit.

🔹 But the injunction expressly protects TWO PEOPLE.

Make that make sense.

I am a Second Amendment advocate. I fought this waiting-period law when it came through the Legislature, and I want it GONE.

But I’m not going to tell New Mexicans they won something the actual judgment may not have given them.

I’m waiting to hear exactly how the Attorney General and the State intend to interpret and enforce yesterday’s judgment.

Until then, perhaps we put the champagne back in the refrigerator.

Because “Ortega and Scott” does not spell “every New Mexican.”

lawyers, tell me I’m wrong.

Stay tuned. 👀

Rep. Jonathan Henry highlights a ridiculous energy policy: New Mexicans pay so California can keep the lights on.

Solutions exist

[New Mexico House Republicans @NMHouseGOP]

Water security begins in the forest. Healthy forests mean healthier watersheds, stronger aquifer recharge, and more reliable flows in our springs and rivers. If we want to protect New Mexico’s water future, we must restore our forests today.

.@RepBlock asked a simple question: Should violent juvenile offenders face real consequences?

Instead of answering, Progressive Democrats interrupted him and tried to shut down the discussion.

This is why New Mexico’s juvenile crime crisis continues. They refuse to confront the problem and silence anyone who does.

The government can only give what they first take away!

[New Mexico House Republicans @NMHouseGOP]

Eliminating the state income tax does not put $2.1 billion “at stake.”

It puts $2.1 billion back in YOUR pockets.

This framing says a lot about how Progressive Democrats view your money. They think it belongs to the government. We think it belongs to you.

New Mexico can afford permanent tax relief. The question is whether Santa Fe is willing to let you keep more of what you earn.

[New Mexico House Republicans @NMHouseGOP]

A New Mexican earning the average income could keep $2,400 more every year.

Eliminating the state personal income tax would provide permanent relief for working families, put more money back into every paycheck, and allow New Mexicans to decide how their hard-earned money is spent.

New Mexico has the resources to deliver meaningful tax relief. It is time to let working families keep more of what they earn and make our state more affordable for everyone.

No time like the present- to let hard working New Mexicans keep more of what they earn

[New Mexico House Republicans @NMHouseGOP]

New Mexico families are being taxed to death while Santa Fe spends their money at record levels.

New Mexico has one of the highest tax burdens in the country, yet taxpayers continue to see some of the worst returns for their money.

Enough is enough.

House Republican leadership is calling on @GovMLG to eliminate the state personal income tax.

Our proposal would put more than $2 billion a year back into the pockets of New Mexicans and provide permanent relief for working families.

Happy birthday America

[Rio Grande Foundation @RioGrandeFndn]

Happy Independence Day! On this week's special episode of Tipping Point NM we talk to @TimothySandefur about his new book “Proclaiming Liberty: John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and the Declaration of Independence” Check it out! Happy Birthday America! https://t.co/dskTQKqnpa

[NM House Republican Campaign Committee @nmhrcc]

Truth! Only YOU can vote for change

[Rio Grande Foundation @RioGrandeFndn]

New Mexico is not a poor state, but it IS a poorly run state! Raising taxes, record government spending growth, and $75 billion sitting in the permanent fund.

[NM House Republican Campaign Committee @nmhrcc]

Over a decade after “free college” and higher ed reports NM has less residents with degree! Facts matter!

@RioGrandeFndn @ThinkNewMexico

[New Mexico House Republicans @NMHouseGOP]

.@GovMLG A 14% increase in enrollment means nothing. Are these students graduating, staying in New Mexico, and finding good jobs? Taxpayers are investing $146 million a year in the Opportunity Scholarship. The real measure of success is outcomes, not enrollment. #nmpol

[NM House Republican Campaign Committee @nmhrcc]

It doesn’t have to be this way

[New Mexico House Republicans @NMHouseGOP]

The state fund used to pay lawsuit settlements is on track to run out of money.

How does that happen?

Just look at the headlines coming out of CYFD.

[NM House Republican Campaign Committee @nmhrcc]

Facts!

[New Mexico House Republicans @NMHouseGOP]

🚨News flash, New Mexico. The Democrat Party has left you.

The party that once claimed to represent working families now views socialism more favorably than capitalism.

While New Mexicans worry about crime, affordability, housing costs, and finding a good job, the modern Democratic Party has moved further and further to the left.

Even CNN is reporting what many Americans already see: this isn't your parents' Democrat Party.

New Mexico doesn't need to go down this road.

#politics #NewMexico #nmpol

[NM House Republican Campaign Committee @nmhrcc]

This is the face of the Democratic Party in New Mexico. They block debate, pass poorly written laws, and keep spending your hard earned money,

It doesn’t have to be this way. Vote for balance. Vote red!

[New Mexico House Republicans @NMHouseGOP]

New Mexico Democrats want you to believe federal agents are only rounding up New Mexico’s abuelas.

In reality, The federal government is targeting some of the most violent criminals in our state and across the country. Drug traffickers. Gang members. Murderers. Sex offenders. Repeat offenders.

They are manufacturing fear to protect a failed political narrative.

New Mexico has spent billions of dollars over the past eight years and moved from 50th to 49th in child well-being.

Meanwhile, we're still ranked 50th in Education and 50th in Family & Community outcomes.

If we're spending more and getting the same results, it's time to try a different approach.

Sometimes the good guys win! Shame on the ACLU and radical lawmakers like Cadena- Lara. Saving babies is common sense. Desiring to place them in danger is just weird. @NMfamilyAction @RioGrandeFndn @TheNewMexicoSun

[Maralyn Beck @MaralynB]

Breaking news —— The NM Supreme Court denied the ACLU’s petition about CARA!!!!! YES!!!!!!!! The ACLU was on the absolute wrong side of this issue - and safety prevails!!!! CHILDREN WILL LIVE!!! THANK YOU MLG!

[NM House Republican Campaign Committee @nmhrcc]

Talking more money from hard working New Mexicans isn’t working.
Instead of reducing homelessness, folks who are working are see rising costs and homelessness has grown. New Mexico Progressives are giving away the YOUR American Dream.

[New Mexico House Republicans @NMHouseGOP]

New Mexico has spent over HALF A BILLION of taxpayer dollars on homelessness in just three years.

The crisis has only become worse.

Last year, Rep. Nicole Chavez sent a letter to Mayor Tim Keller demanding answers about Albuquerque’s homelessness programs, where the money was going, and whether any of it was actually working. There was no response.

The Democrat strategy of throwing taxpayer money at the problem until it fixes itself has completely failed. New Mexicans are tired of watching more money get spent while our problems only keeps growing.

@RizwanS48978934 @dowfornm @beauhightowerdn @RioGrandeFndn Yup

[NM House Republican Campaign Committee @nmhrcc]

Over 70% of New Mexico believes dollars should follow students to the setting where they can thrive.

[Corey A. DeAngelis, school choice evangelist @DeAngelisCorey]

You can say that again.

Imagine if Democrats could read the room and support school choice.

Randi Weingarten and the teachers unions would be screwed.

[NM House Republican Campaign Committee @nmhrcc]

Call and email MLG. Ask her to help ALL students get access to needed educational services

[New Mexico House Republicans @NMHouseGOP]

Even New York’s Democrat governor is opting into the federal school choice scholarship program.

New Mexico ranks dead last in education. Our families are desperate for better options. If Kathy Hochul can put students ahead of politics, @GovMLG you should too.

[NM House Republican Campaign Committee @nmhrcc]

It doesn’t have to be this way

[New Mexico House Republicans @NMHouseGOP]

New Mexico already has the highest percentage of its population on food stamps in the nation. We also have one of the highest SNAP payment error rates in the country.

Now the federal government says it identified 186,000 dead people nationwide still receiving SNAP benefits, along with hundreds of thousands of duplicate payments.

Taxpayers deserve accountability.

If New Mexico leads the nation in SNAP dependency and payment errors, lawmakers should be asking hard questions about waste, fraud, and abuse in our own system.

This is exactly why the Legislature needs a permanent Fraud, Waste, and Abuse Committee to investigate state programs and protect taxpayer dollars.
