LAS CRUCES - Residents who believe New Mexico needs to ease restrictions intended to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 will gather on Saturday for another Freedom Rally.
The rallies will take place in Albuquerque, Las Cruces and Silver City. The Las Cruces rally will be from 10 a.m. to noon at Albert Johnson Park on the corner of Main Street and Picacho Avenue.
Las Cruces organizer Sarah Smith points to New Mexico's high unemployment rate and relatively high death rate from the SARS CoV-2 coronavirus as reasons the state's restrictions need to be lifted.
