Lujan Grisham slams Republicans for delaying Covid vaccine for children
SANTA FE — New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham plans to sign emergency legislation passed by legislature providing $162 million to protect New Mexicans from federal budget cuts that threaten health care and food benefits statewide.
"We refuse to let New Mexico families fall through the cracks because Republicans in Washington have abandoned their responsibility to the American people," saidLujan Grisham, who called lawmakers into a special legislative session this week. "The legislation passed during the special session protects families from being priced out of health care when their premiums double or triple, and we're supporting providers who are keeping the doors open in our smallest communities."
