Any info on how to get the state legislature to repeal that portion of the Act?

I haven’t lived in NM since 1998. My guess is the democrats have too much control for a successful attempt at repeal, while the republicans won’t want to take a black eye from the MSM when there is little chance of victory.

Sorry, but while I liked living in Portales, I have a low opinion of NM politics. Heck, I doubt we would win here in Arizona, which is more conservative an area than New Mexico.

Consider how broad NM’s Human Right Act is, covering “discrimination based on race, color, national origin, religion, ancestry, sex, age, physical and mental handicap, serious medical condition, disability, spousal affiliation, sexual orientation and gender identity”.

My guess is that under the law, EVERYONE in NM is a protected minority of some sort.
