A bill that usually garners strong support from lawmakers on both sides of the aisle has turned into a political lightning rod over one of the most politicized issues in the nation: abortion.

House Bill 450, a $1.2 billion capital outlay measure that would fund more than 1,400 projects statewide, includes a $10 million appropriation from Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham to build a reproductive health clinic in Northern New Mexico."

The Inspection of Public Records Act (IPRA), NMSA 1978, §14-2-1 to – 12, is a New Mexico state law that provides the public access to public records. The law requires open access to almost all public records in state and local government, with a few exceptions."

The Inspection of Public Records Act (IPRA), NMSA 1978, §14-2-1 to – 12, is a New Mexico state law that provides the public access to public records. The law requires open access to almost all public records in state and local government, with a few exceptions." 

"It can be challenging to recruit and retain an adequate number of health care professionals to work in the field of reproductive health given the increasing demand and political spotlight on this type of medical care. This new exception to the IPRA act may help recruit and retain qualified and talented health care professionals to work in New Mexico in reproductive health care and thereby increase the availability of treatment options for persons in need of such services."

One of the main problems with Senate Bill 57 is that most if not all of the individuals performing abortions are being reimbursed by New Mexico Medicaid which is funded by state tax dollars. 

It is a complete violation of the public trust to not disclose where taxpayer money is spent. The lack of transparency in the New Mexico government is appalling and it just keeps getting worse.

Pro-lifers have a long history of utilizing public records requests to identify abortion providers who have lost their medical license due to medical negligence or malpractice. In many documented instances abortionists have even killed women during abortions. The general public, and especially women seeking abortions, should have access to this information. Abortion providers shouldn’t be exempt from public scrutiny, whereas other medical practitioners are accountable to the public in every other field of legitimate medicine.

​Abortion Free New Mexico is urging the public to contact their New Mexico State representative and ask them to vote NO on Senate Bill 57."

At VAG our providers deliver care through an antiracist, survivor-centered, trauma-informed approach" ​

All Genders Have Abortions."

The Valley Abortion Group leaders seem very confused and unstable with fringe allegiances, ranging from the 'queer' community, which are physically unable to reproduce, to Palestinians in Gaza who are not indigenous to New Mexico. One thing is for sure, they are proudly hell bent on ending the lives of pre-born children up to the day of birth. No matter how hard they try though, they'll never get rid of abortion stigma and rightly so, it's not normal for mothers to intentionally take the lives of their pre-born children," stated Tara Shaver of Abortion Free New Mexico.

The last thing New Mexico needs is another abortion provider. New Mexicans need to come together to build a culture that views motherhood as a beautiful gift and children as a blessing. So many leftist ideologies have permeated our culture and since there are no common sense laws such as waiting periods, informed consent or gestational limitations pregnant women in crisis are vulnerable to the predatory abortion industry. Abortion is innately traumatizing to a woman's body, mind and soul. The Valley Abortion Group is unfortunately contributing to the degradation of women by only offering abortion procedures instead of real life resources that empower women to motherhood."
