ALBUQUERQUE, AUGUST 26 — Republican Party of New Mexico Chairman Steve Pearce issued the following statement on today’s ruling by the New Mexico Supreme Court on the governor’s Public Health Order as it pertains to the indoor dining ban for restaurants:
“Today’s ruling is another disappointing setback in the call for equal protection under the law. The Lujan Grisham Administration’s ban on in-house dining is not supported by facts or science in any way and is arbitrary and capricious. This is another example of the Administration exceeding its authority and the High Court accepting it. The ruling manifests the important need for change at the polls this November, including the judiciary.”
