ATTORNEY GENERAL’S OFFICE NEWS

Attorney General Hector Balderas issued the following statement Monday after the dismissal of President Donald Trump’s baseless lawsuit to overturn New Mexico’s valid election:

“This dangerous lawsuit was a lost cause from the beginning, but Republican leaders should put safety first and admit their loyalty is to Donald Trump over New Mexico and the United States; and I am still demanding that they step up and admit that the lies they continue to spread resulted in the deaths of civilians and law enforcement in a violent attack on our democracy,” said Attorney General Balderas.
