New Mexico Supreme Court Tramples Pro-Life Counties and Cities Right To Protect The Unborn
By Bud Shaver, Santa Fe, New Mexico- The New Mexico Supreme Court unanimously ruled on Thursday, January 9, 2025 that counties and cities across the state cannot enact pro-life laws to protect pre-born babies. The Sanctuary Cities for the Unborn ordinances that were passed in New Mexico are known as Comstock Only Ordinances. These laws are not explicit abortion bans, but are “de facto” abortion bans. They require compliance with federal statutes specifically, specifically 18 U.S.C. § 1461 and 18 U.S.C. § 1462, prohibiting the mailing and receiving of abortion-inducing drugs and paraphernalia, according to Mark Lee Dickson.According to the New Mexico Supreme Court’s overriding opinion, The Court wrote that the ordinances did not exactly follow federal…

YOUR VOTE MATTERS!
By Bud Shaver, Albuquerque, New Mexico- Voting is a powerful way to make your voice heard and influence the future of our state. Single party domination does not work well and the many ‘worst in the nation’ rankings prove it. Defend Traditional Values: Self-proclaimed “progressives” in New Mexico have passed laws (and want more) that put parental rights, pre-born babies rights, and the values of hard work and personal responsibility under attack. Your vote can help elect leaders who are committed to preserving the principles that strengthen New Mexico’s communities. Your vote matters – some elections in New Mexico are won/lost by a single vote! Make sure you take time to make your voice heard at the ballot box…

ABORTION FREE FOR ALL IN NEW MEXICO: TAXES FUND ABORTIONS FOR MINORS, ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS AND OUT OF STATE RESIDENTS
By Bud Shaver,Albuquerque, New Mexico- On August 5, 2024, New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham announced that her administration launched a $400,000 ad campaign throughout Texas to recruit more abortionists to New Mexico. According to Newsmax, “The ad campaign, strewn across five major Texas newspapers and displayed across six billboards around the Houston Medical Center, is aiming to lure doctors to New Mexico, where they will have the ‘Freedom to Provide’ abortion, among other ostensible health services.” For over eight years, New Mexico has ranked last in the nation for education (the entire tenure of governor Michelle Lujan Grisham) and consistently ranks as one of the poorest states in the country. In addition to using New Mexico tax dollars to…

The Devil’s in the Abortion Clinic
By Bud Shaver, Albuquerque, New Mexico- This month, Tara Shaver, spokeswoman for Abortion Free New Mexico was the sole pro-life voice featured in an article highlighted on the front page of the November/December edition of Cosmopolitan magazine. The detailed report captioned, “The Devil’s in the… Health Clinic?” highlights The Satanic Temple, their abortion expansion into New Mexico and their legal fight (which a judge has since struck down) claiming that abortions are a necessary component of their religious ritual. The Satanic Temple is actively capitalizing on New Mexico’s lack of abortion restrictions by promoting and providing the abortion pill by mail. However, the article sheds light on their real agenda which is to…

By Bud Shaver, Albuquerque, NM– Each week Abortion Free New Mexico volunteers stand in prayer and sidewalk counsel women going into the Alamo Women’s Abortion Clinic.

One couple stopped to talk with a volunteer and was given life saving information and hope before entering the abortion center.

Save Your Seat: Year End Finale for Life
By Bud Shaver, Albuquerque, NM– Abortion Free New Mexico will be hosting our 3rd Annual Year End Finale for Life Appreciation Fundraising Dinner on November 16, 2023. This year’s guest speaker is Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue, a long time friend and mentor of New Mexico’s Pro-Life Missionaries, Bud and Tara Shaver. In fact, Bud and Tara worked for Operation Rescue before arriving in Albuquerque where they learned how to effectively close down abortion facilities and to bring accountability to an unregulated abortion industry. For many years abortionists were shutting their doors and progress was being made as we exposed this grisly industry. Unfortunately, abortions are now up 220% in New Mexico and we need some reinforcements and…

6th Injury at UNM Abortion Facility
By Bud Shaver, Albuquerque, New Mexico- On Wednesday, July 19th Abortion Free New Mexico volunteers documented the sixth abortion injury of 2023 at the UNM Center for Reproductive Health abortion center. A fire engine and an ambulance were photographed onsite and a woman was taken to a local emergency room. It is unknown what injuries were incurred because the City of Albuquerque refuses to release redacted 911 calls to Abortion Free Mexico leader, Tara Shaver. First and second trimester procedures are performed up to 24 weeks (6 months) of pregnancy at this location.This abortion injury occurred just weeks after New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham launched a Reproductive Health Hotline to connect women…

The Pro-Life Community Came Through
By Bud Shaver, Albuquerque, New Mexico- Last week, Abortion Free New Mexico asked the pro-life community to help with a last minute donation to help pay rent for a mother who turned away from Southwestern Women’s Options and chose life for her baby. Within 24 hours YOU provided all of the money needed to cover the cost of one months rent. Tara has been in contact with the couple’s landlord, and mailed the rent check which is due to arrive today, July 3rd. We are grateful to have you partner with us to meet the needs of women who choose life for their babies, yet face uncertain circumstances. This is the beauty of…

“NM abortions on the rise”
By Bud Shaver, Albuquerque, New Mexico- On March 26, the Albuquerque Journal reached out to us and spoke with Tara Shaver, spokeswoman for Abortion Free New Mexico to get our perspective about how the overturning of Roe vs. Wade has impacted pro-life efforts in New Mexico. For years now, New Mexico has been an abortion magnet because of the horrific and barbaric 3rd trimester abortions that have recently halted. However, Abortion Free New Mexico along with other pro-life groups saw the number of abortions steadily decline year after year. It’s no surprise that with Roe overturned and New Mexico’s extreme Democrat legislature, that abortion facilities are on the rise and out of state women traveling to obtain…

Living Proof: Celebrating New Life
By Bud Shaver, Albuquerque, New Mexico- For almost one year now, Abortion Free New Mexico’s, No Sidewalk Without the Savior, prayer initiative has brought volunteers to the UNM Center for Reproductive Health (UNMCRH) abortion center each day to be a living witness for life. We may never know the full impact of our presence but we sometimes have women who come and show us their babies years down the road who kept driving the day of their abortion appointment. However, it is moms that we have the privilege of serving and walking alongside in their journey through pregnancy that we celebrate in this article. We are proud to announce that two of the Texas women that…

Taking Saturdays By Storm!
By Bud Shaver, Albuquerque, New Mexico- Due to the increasing number of abortion facilities in Albuquerque, the body of Christ must rise to the occasion to pray and minister to women seeking abortions at these new locations. In response to this, Abortion Free New Mexico is expanding our prayer initiative, “No Sidewalk Without the Savior” to include Alamo Women’s abortion clinic every Saturday! Alamo Women’s Clinic is a San Antonio based abortion facility that opened a new location in Albuquerque, New Mexico after Roe vs. Wade was overturned. In Albuquerque, Alamo Women’s abortionist and facility owner, Alan Braid, is performing abortions up to 18 weeks of pregnancy.

BREAKING: New Mexico No Longer Late-Term Abortion Capital
By Bud Shaver, Albuquerque, New Mexico- Abortion Free New Mexico has confirmed that the notorious Southwestern Women’s Options abortion facility is no longer performing third trimester abortions. Citing staff shortages and overwhelming clientele from out of state, they are now referring to other abortion facilities in Colorado, Maryland and Washington D.C. Southwestern Women’s Options is the abortion facility where the late Carmen Landau specialized in providing third trimester abortions. Her sudden death is presumably in part the reason for this abrupt change. Southwestern Women’s Options is, however, still offering abortion pills in clinic, and by mail, as well as first and second trimester abortions through 23.6 weeks of pregnancy. This means that Albuquerque currently has two abortion facilities that offer abortions up to…

By Bud Shaver, Albuquerque, New Mexico- In the wake of Roe vs. Wade being overturned, the Satanic Temple is the latest group that has expressed their intention to expand abortion services in New Mexico. For its new facility, the temple said anyone in New Mexico seeking to perform its abortion ritual will be able to receive online medical services free of charge. Patients undergo a screening and virtual appointment before having their prescriptions sent to the clinic’s pharmacy partner, who will mail the medications in a discreet package, it said. Since Roe vs. Wade was overturned on June 24, 2022, two abortion facilities have set up shop in New Mexico, one in Las Cruces and one in…
