Today's Conference Call With Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham

Robert Scott Windhorst, Cibola County Commissioner, District 4 and Code Enforcement Officer for the City of Grants took part in the conference call with Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham today.

He posted a report on Facebook on how the conference call went.

He wrote:

Our conference call with the Governor and State AG was very cordial. The President of the Association of Counties asked questions and the Governor and State AG answered them. Hector Balderas did admit that; "Each County Sheriff has the discretion to enforce any law, or not." 

The Governor talked about her plan for public safety, but did not mention border safety or security. I could tell she had a bad taste in her mouth because of the "Rogue Sheriffs" throughout the State and for the "misunderstanding" of the gun laws because of NRA propaganda. She also spoke about the misunderstanding of her position on coal and oil. It was obvious that her position was changed after the election when she saw how much oil, gas, and coal bring into the State every year. 

There was no mention of forcing Counties to rescind their Second Amendment status. Cibola County wouldn't do it anyways. 

The President of the Association of Counties told the Governor four times that Commissioners throughout the State wanted the Governor to meet with the 29 Sheriffs and work together to come up with common sensed laws to protect citizens. Chairman Torrez, Sheriff Mace, and myself were present at the phone conference. Channel 7 did an interview with me and the Sheriff that will be aired tonight. We must continue to be vigilant in protecting our Constitutional rights.

Thanks to Commissioner Windhorst for his report on today's conference call. He is right, we must continue to be vigilant in protecting our Constitutional rights.
