SECESSION OF COUNTIES FROM NM, CA

Summary

The resolution would add a new section to Article 1 that sets out a process for counties to leave New Mexico and either become a new state or join another state. It requires a petition, a super‑majority vote, unanimous county‑commission support, payment of any state debts, and approval by Congress and the President. If passed, it would let participating counties and their residents exit the state under those conditions.
