By Bud ShaverAlbuquerque, New Mexico– In October of 2020, Brenda Pereda, a controversial University of New Mexico trained abortionist opened a Women’s Clinic at the Los Alamos Medical Center (LAMC).

BREAKING: Updated New Mexico Abortion Clinic Landscape 2022
By Bud ShaverAlbuquerque, New Mexico– While many states have benefited from Roe vs. Wade being overruled, unfortunately in New Mexico, abortion is expanding and there is already a visible increase in abortion tourism.

But the Supreme Court’s ruling Friday on a Mississippi law to ban most abortions after 15 weeks, reversing the landmark 1973 Roe vs. Wade ruling, has New Mexico’s abortion providers bracing for a new influx of patients from conservative states.” Over the past 12 years Abortion…
