Nanana nananana hey hey hey, GOODBYE!
Cervantes needs to get a grip as well, he is no better than Lujan and does not deserve the Speaker of the House position. He failed to take responsibility for voting in favor of giving driver's licenses to illegals, he consistently blames his vote on the police officers.
If NM wants a Democratic Speaker who is honorable, Andy Nunez is your man. Viva Andy!
