Statement from Governor Martinez:

"In addition to fighting corruption and increasing transparency, another way to earn back the trust of New Mexicans is to start applying common sense in the laws we pass and the policies we pursue. That means when people have to show a photo ID to rent a movie, it’s not too much to ask to show a photo ID to vote." (State of the State Address, Governor Susana Martinez, 1/18/2011)
