Show Notes
New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham has signed a new law, Senate Bill forty, that sets limits on police use of automatic license plate reader data. The bill, which has bipartisan support and local sheriff endorsement, prohibits data sharing for immigration checks, tracking individuals seeking abortions, or monitoring protected activities like protests. It also mandates better documentation, audits, and access controls for law enforcement. The ACLU of New Mexico praised the bill, citing past overuse for immigration searches. New Mexico joins at least sixteen other states regulating these cameras, with some capping data storage and sales, and others banning them outright.
