WATCH NOW! NEW MEXICO SUPREME COURT HEARING ORAL ARGUMENTS IN NRA LAWSUIT AGAINST GOVERNOR'S GUN BAN!

Read on for important information about NRA-ILA statewide webinar on upcoming legislative session.

Dear NRA member:

WATCH NOW!  At 9:30am MST TODAY, the New Mexico Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in NRA's landmark lawsuit, filed along with concerned citizens, Republican state lawmakers and the Republican Party of New Mexico, against Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham and her use of public health orders to nullify your Second Amendment rights in Bernalillo County and across the state.  Tune in to watch the proceedings at this link:

Prefiling of bills for the 2024 session of the New Mexico Legislature has begun.  Gun control advocates have already filed House Bill 27, legislation which expands New Mexico's red flag gun confiscation law by allowing law enforcement officers and licensed health care professionals to be "reporting parties" to petitioners for extreme risk protective orders and by requiring immediate surrender of firearms upon service of temporary or regular ERPOs (current law provides for up to 48 hours.)  New Mexico's ERPO law, which tramples on civil liberties with little or no due process, should be repealed – not expanded! 

NRA-ILA will host a statewide webinar for NRA members and Second Amendment supporters on Monday, January 15, at 7:00pm MST to discuss this measure and other radical legislation impacting your gun rights that we fully expect to see filed in the coming days or weeks, including bans on commonly-owned semi-automatic firearms, limits on magazine capacity, proposals to raise the age for firearms purchases and waiting periods for lawful gun buyers.  Find out how what you can do to help fight these extreme attacks on your liberty and freedom in the Land of Enchantment.  Registration is required and you can do so at this link.
