SANTA FE — Today, the House of Representatives passed Senate Bill 71, sponsored by Senator Craig Brandt (R-Rio Rancho), with unanimous, bipartisan support.

Senator Brandt issued the following statement regarding the passage of his bill:

“Thank you to the House of Representatives who saw the importance of this bill for those living with mental or physical disabilities. Glory, a constituent of mine with down syndrome, and the thousands like her deserve the same chance at a full life as the rest of us. Every life deserves equal treatment under the law and I hope the Governor will sign this bill quickly.”
