1/3 Full statement from @LeaderTownsend re: @GovMLG press conference: "I cannot commit to any session that excludes the public. That is why I believe we should postpone the 2021 session, until public participation is guaranteed and satisfactory." #nmpol#nmleg
2/3 "I learned of a possible special session at the same time everyone else did, during the Governor's press conference this afternoon. Right now the House Republicans are focused on the needs of our communities because the Governor has shut down our economy again." #nmpol#nmleg
3/3 "Until we are brought to the table for real and tangible economic relief, we will continue to work with our communities on dealing with the virus that the Lujan Grisham administration cannot seem to get a handle on." #nmpol#nmleg
Today at noon, the Legislative Council will meet to discuss the findings of and determine next steps regarding the bipartisan investigation into @GovMLG's illegal emergency spending. Meeting will be live-streamed at sg001-harmony.sliq.net/00293/harmony #nmpol#nmleg
ICYMI here is @LeaderTownsend's statement: “The Governor and her administration might think that a bipartisan investigation to protect taxpayers is a minor detail, but I can assure them that they work for the people and not the other way around" #nmpol#nmleg
More from @LeaderTownsend "I surely hope Speaker Egolf and Senate Pro Tempore Papen take as much offense as we do in regards to this administration’s self-serving behavior and complete disregard for New Mexico’s constitution." #nmpol#nmleg
