>> BREAKING: Congress will vote on ‘Condemning the actions of Governor of New Mexico’
Not all of Congress. Just the House of Representatives.
Will be good to get them on record
She also needs to be thrown out of office and consider herself lucky that she's not thrown out of the country for not just failing at her oath to defend the Constitution but for outright attacking it.
Arrest her for insurrection, trying to overthrow the Constitution.
Arrest her lawyers and advisors too, anyone she talked to.
Let’s get it started.
introduced by Dan Newhouse, (R) WA
text of resolution (as introduced):

Oh here we go. The republicans are going to send a strongly worded letter.
meaningless and moot.....when is buyden going to be impeached?...when is the fed going to be audited?...when our we going to stop sending billions and billions to the corrupt Ukrainian regeme while our citizens are struggling?...
Maybe some of the people that voted her in should receive sternly worded letters.
Amen!
Virtue signalling.
It’s good they are against it, but whether or not they have any constitutional duty or recourse in theory is at best depatable, and with the Dems in control of the Senate and the White House the answer in practice is no.
Get back to fighting with and attempting to bring the Senate more into line.
Lock her up.
Meanwhile they do nothing about the ATF which is out of control. They have the power of the purse, and yet they won’t dare try to swing it at the federal leviathan.
While I concur with your position this is nothing more than a ‘strongly worded letter’ that will be ignored by Grisham and denounced by demoRats in general. Congress can bitch about what an official of a state says but unless there is an actual actionable crime committed, the FedGov can’t do anything. No real consequences, no behavioral change.
On the plus side such a resolution will have the positive result of putting our Congressional reps position on record. It could change a few votes down the road.
I am confused here. What is the difference to what she did compared to NYC or Chicago and their gun laws?
Another worthless action from the uniparty. That karen must be removed and jailed.
That’s the key observation.
The Constitution — the highest law in the land — announces to every state and every local community that the right to keep and bear arms “shall not be infringed”. And yet everywhere you look there is infringement. New Mexico is infringing pretty egregiously. But, as you point out, NYC, Chicago and everywhere else is also infringing. The courts don’t seem concerned with infringement.
Maybe this will push the issue of “gun control” to the Supreme Court and make all gun control laws disappear. But I doubt it. We’ve been going down this road a long time and New Mexico isn’t really a new thing. Just more of the same.
Everywhere else, most egregiously the US Congress itself. The National Firearms Act and the Gun Control Act are blatant violations of the federal Constitution, committed by Congress itself.
