Bill introduced to strengthen resources for mass deportation in New Mexico


New Mexico Republicans are pushing for state officials to comply with President Trump’s mass deportation plans through Senate Bill 87. The bill aims to prevent any restrictions on using resources to assist with Federal Immigration Law enforcement. Senator Jay Block emphasized the importance of supporting the administration in immigration efforts. The bill comes amidst nationwide deportation efforts, with concerns that raids could reach Albuquerque. Taos Sheriff Steve Miera has stated that his office will not conduct immigration-focused raids. The bill is under review by the Senate Health and Public Affairs Committee, requiring bipartisan support for passage. Representative Luis Terrazas supports the bill, citing the need for cooperation with federal resources to protect citizens. New Mexico is praised for its diverse culture, stemming from immigration, but Terrazas stresses the importance of facilitating legal immigration. Democrats have not responded to requests for comment on the bill. The issue highlights the divisions and challenges surrounding immigration enforcement in the state.
