People in parts of New Mexico are waiting in long lines to get into grocery stores because some have been forced to close because of new rules imposed by state officials.

Approximately 27 “essential” businesses have been shut down because of the new rules, according to the state government, including six Walmarts, two Albertsons Markets, and several other stores that sell groceries.
