New Mexico: Take Action Against Senate Bill 279 and Senate Bill 318 TODAY!

Dear [Lawmaker],

As a fellow New Mexican and strong supporter of the Second Amendment, I strongly urge you to vote NO on Senate Bill 279, the Gas-Operated Semiauto Firearms Exclusion Act, and Senate Bill 318. 
Senate Bill 279 seeks to regulate and potentially prohibit the possession of a wide range of semiautomatic firearms commonly used by law-abiding citizens for recreation, hunting, self-defense, and competitive shooting. This legislation would not help lower crime rates but instead threatens to criminalize responsible gun owners and undermine constitutional rights.
Senate Bill 318 expands the New Mexico Unfair Practices Act to include firearms, parts, and accessories, imposing severe penalties of $250,000 per violation and holding manufacturers, distributors, and online platforms jointly liable for actions by third parties. It allows private lawsuits without proof of harm, subjects out-of-state and online sellers to New Mexico laws, and grants sweeping authority to the Attorney General to pursue civil penalties. This overreach increases compliance costs, threatens lawful businesses with excessive litigation, and raises serious constitutional and interstate commerce concerns, all while doing little to address criminal misuse of firearms.
Again, I strongly urge you to OPPOSE SB 279 and 318!

Sincerely,
______
