We have less than two days left in this year’s legislative session. Today, SB428 was passed out of the House Judiciary Committee, but it was amended. The amendments were not good ones, but they force the bill to travel back to the senate for concurrence if it passes the house side. That was […]

Today’s legislative action got off to a wild start when the governor threatened to hold a special session to focus on gun control if the legislature doesn’t pass her priority bills. Her threat was noted in the Senate Finance Committee where HB9, the bill that would impose criminal penalties on a gun owner […]

NMSSA Legislative Update 2/28/23

 

Today, the Governor held a press conference to promote her anti-gun and anti-freedom agenda. But her displeasure at the tabling of SB171 yesterday was noticeable, so she is doubling down on pushing for her slate of anti-gun bills. As a result, two bills were scheduled late today for hearings tomorrow.

First, HB9, the […]

That bill now heads to the House […]
