Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor New Mexico State Police Officer Justin Hare, a dedicated law enforcement officer and protector of our beloved New Mexico communities. Officer Hare was known for kindness and consideration for those who travel New Mexico's long roads. Last week, he stopped to help a driver on the side of the road with a flat tire. That driver tragically shot and killed Officer Hare. Officer Hare dedicated his life to the people of Quay County. He coached sports teams, volunteered, and lent a helping hand to whomever needed it. He loved his partner, Daizzare Quintana; their daughters, Juliann and Caydence; and the unborn child they expected in September. Today, we honor Officer Hare and the sacrifice he made for the community he loved so dearly. I send my deepest condolences to his family and to his colleagues in the New Mexico State Police. Mr. Speaker, when you next see a State Police officer on the road, send them a quiet prayer of remembrance for Officer Hare. ____________________”
