“The Sikh community is a strong contributing member of both New Mexico’s and our nation’s rich cultural diverse community and we cannot tolerate the exploitation of violence against anyone for profit,” stated Lt. Governor Walter Bradley of New Mexico.

Bradley’s endorsement comes less than one week after California Lt. Governor Cruz Bustamante also joined the campaign. Both Lt. Governors come from states with significant Sikh populations and both have exhibited their willingness in the past to stand up and protect the Sikh community.
