CONSUMPTION OF ALCOHOL
This Senate Resolution (SR 1) proposes a procedural rule for New Mexico senators, prohibiting alcohol consumption during Senate floor sessions or committee meetings. It directly affects only senators serving in the New Mexico Legislature, not the general public. The rule would amend Senate Rule 7-21 to explicitly ban senators from consuming alcohol before or during official legislative sessions. The resolution was referred to committees but was postponed indefinitely on June 3, 2025, and did not become law.
