Gallegos traveled to Washington earlier in the week to join a group that announced the city\u2019s lawsuit outside the U.S. Supreme Court building.<\/p>\n<p>Democratic state Attorney General Ra\u00fal Torrez has petitioned the New Mexico Supreme Court to intervene and to prohibit local governments from denying access to reproductive healthcare.<\/p>\n<p>The attorney general&#8217;s office says Eunice is raising the same arguments as other local jurisdictions in support of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/judiciary\/abortion\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">abortion ordinances<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/new-mexico-supreme-court-blocks-local-abortion-restrictions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>NEW MEXICO SUPREME COURT BLOCKS LOCAL ABORTION RESTRICTIONS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The (state) Supreme Court is better situated to address these issues in the first instance, and the attorney general&#8217;s office will be seeking a stay of the district court action,&#8221; the agency said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>Anti-abortion ordinances in Lea and Roosevelt counties and the cities of Hobbs and Clovis have been placed on hold as the high court in Santa Fe awaits written briefs from all parties.<\/p>\n<p>In 2021, New Mexico\u2019s Democrat-led Legislature passed a measure to repeal a dormant 1969 statute that outlawed most abortion procedures, which ensured access to abortion after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the Roe v.
