Шаблон:Short description On September 7, 2023, the Governor of New Mexico, Michelle Lujan Grisham signed an emergency order banning firearms in Albuquerque and Bernalillo County for 30 days.[1][2]

Background

Lujan Grisham gave the order in response to three mass shootings in New Mexico so far in 2023, including the Farmington, New Mexico shooting.[2] On September 13, U. S. District Judge David H. Urias blocked enforcement of the ban until October 3, citing the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution.[3][4]

Further developments

On September 16, Lujan Grisham narrowed the ban to playgrounds and parks and "other public areas provided for children to play in." A third order dropped this last clause, and Urias has let the ban on guns in playgrounds and parks stand.[5][6][7] The most recent order is now set to expire on November 3.[6]

Text of the order

The section of the first emergency order suspending the right to carry in public reads as follows: Шаблон:Blockquote

Reaction

Albuquerque Police Chief Harold Medina and Bernalillo County Sheriff John Allen both said they would not enforce the original order,[8] the latter stating it was unconstitutional.[9] The Attorney General of New Mexico, Raúl Torrez, said he would not defend the governor's administration against lawsuits challenging the order.[10]
