New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham’s order to suspend all forms of gun carry in and around the state’s largest city in the name of a “public health emergency” has already drawn multiple legal challenges.
Citing the recent shooting deaths of three children, including an 11-year-old boy killed outside a minor league baseball park in Albuquerque in a suspected road rage incident, the Democrat governor declared it would be illegal to open or conceal carry a gun in Albuquerque and surrounding areas in Bernalillo County, even for those who have valid permits.
