Susana Martinez (born July 14, 1959, in El Paso, Texas) was the 31st Governor of New Mexico. Martinez, a Republican, first won election on November 2, 2010, defeating former  Lieutenant Governor Diane Denish (D) with 53.3 percent of the vote.[1] Martinez sought re-election in the 2014 elections. Susana Martinez won the general election on November 4, 2014.[2] Martinez was ineligible to run for another term in 2018 because of term limits.

An attorney by trade, Martinez previously served as district attorney for the 3rd Judicial District in Doña Ana County, New Mexico, from 1997 until 2011.[3]

An analysis of Republican governors by Nate Silver of the New York Times in April 2013 ranked Martinez as the 24th most conservative governor in the country.[4]

Martinez was a Democrat until 1995, when she switched to the Republican Party.[5]

##### Campaign finance lawsuit

In the summer of 2014, Democratic candidate Gary King faced accusations of accepting excessive contributions following his primary election victory. Secretary of State Dianna Duran (R) directed King's campaign staff to deposit $10,900 in excessive contributions to the state elections fund by August 4. The order focused on $10,400 from a couple in Taos and $500 from a Santa Fe resident that pushed King's campaign over the $5,200 limit for the primary.[16]

King filed a lawsuit with the New Mexico Supreme Court contesting the secretary's order. He claimed that the contributions were acceptable as they would be used to eliminate his campaign's debt from the primary. King also criticized Duran, saying, "One of my real complaints in this is the secretary of state is using her office to try and steal the election for Gov. Martinez." His lawsuit also stated that Martinez and other candidates had gathered contributions exceeding $5,200 ahead of the primary.[16] On August 14, Duran issued a letter to King stating that he could exceed the contribution limit for the primary election in order to pay down campaign debts.[17]

## 2016 Republican National Convention

See also: Republican National Convention, 2016

Martinez was an at-large delegate to the 2016 Republican National Convention from New Mexico. Martinez was one of 24 delegates from New Mexico bound by state party rules to support Donald Trump at the convention.[22]

### Delegate rules

See also: RNC delegate guidelines from New Mexico, 2016 and Republican delegates from New Mexico, 2016

Delegates from New Mexico to the Republican National Convention were elected at a state convention in May 2016. New Mexico delegates were bound for the first ballot at the convention. As of July 2016, New Mexico state law explicitly criminalized the conduct of any delegate who does not vote for the presidential candidate to whom they are pledged. A violation of the delegate's pledge to support that candidate on the first ballot was considered a petty misdemeanor.

### Delegate allocation

See also: Republican National Convention, 2016 and 2016 presidential nominations: calendar and delegate rules

New Mexico had 24 delegates at the 2016 Republican National Convention. Of this total, nine were district-level delegates (three for each of the state's three congressional districts), and 12 served as at-large delegates. New Mexico's district and at-large delegates were allocated proportionally; a candidate had to win at least 15% of the statewide primary vote in order to be eligible to receive a portion of the state's district and at-large delegates.[23][24]

In addition, three national party leaders (identified on the chart below as RNC delegates) served as bound delegates to the Republican National Convention.[23][24]

## Noteworthy events

### Executive order requiring regulatory impact statements

See also: Regulatory impact analysis

On December 18, 2018, Martinez signed an executive order requiring all state boards, commissions, and agencies to complete a Regulatory Impact Form (RIF) for each proposed rule or regulatory change.[25]

The RIFs featured information about each proposal's impact on the general public and possible outcomes to expect if the proposal was not implemented. State regulators were also required to include information identifying the problem that the proposal intended to address and provide an explanation for why the proposal was the best option among other possible solutions. The RIFs were required to be posted online through the state’s Sunshine Portal for public review 48 hours prior to the public comment period.

“Improving our regulatory environment has been a top priority for this administration, and analyzing each proposed rule is another step forward in ensuring that regulations are created responsibly and transparently,” said Martinez in a press release. “This new tool will help regulators and the public better understand the impact these regulations have on the people of our state.”

Democratic Governor-elect Michelle Lujan Grisham had not indicated whether or not she supported the order as of December 18.

The RIFs in New Mexico are similar to the Regulatory Impact Analyses (RIA) submitted by federal agencies as part of the federal regulatory review process. Presidential Executive Order 12866 required federal agencies to submit RIAs to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) for each proposed significant regulatory action—those that may conflict with presidential priorities or have large impacts on the economy, environment, public health, or state or local governments.

Unlike federal RIAs, New Mexico’s RIFs will be required for all proposed rules or regulatory changes and will not be limited to those with significant regulatory impacts.

#### Stance on Syrian refugee resettlement

Main article: U.S. governors and their responses to Syrian refugees

After the attacks in Paris, France, on November 13, 2015, many U.S. governors declared their support or opposition to Syrian refugee resettlement in their states. Martinez expressed strong opposition to the resettlement of Syrian refugees in the state of New Mexico. Press secretary Michael Lonergan said:

“  | [The governor] strongly opposes the Obama Administration’s plan to accept more Syrian refugees until there is a very clear plan in place to properly vet and place the refugees, and the voices of governors and the public can be heard. The Governor’s top priority is keeping New Mexico’s families safe. In light of the attacks in Paris, she has directed all relevant state agencies to work closely with federal authorities to help prevent and respond to threats of any nature.[26] | ”

### Third grade retention

In November 2013, Martinez supported the idea of retaining students who could not read at a minimal level by the end of the third grade. The legislature failed to pass a third-grade retention bill.[28]

### Job creation ranking

A June 2013 analysis by The Business Journals ranked 45 governors based on the annual private sector growth rate in all 50 states using data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Martinez was ranked number 43 (tie). The five governors omitted from the analysis all assumed office in 2013.[29][30]

### Affordable Care Act

See also: Healthcare.gov website rollout and Health insurance policy cancellations since Obamacare

In December 2012, Martinez diverged from most Republican governors when she declined to enter New Mexico into the federal exchange system, as established under the Affordable Care Act, in favor of setting up a state-based system.[31][32] New Mexico was one of 18 states—including Colorado, New York, Maryland, and Washington—that decided to create and run individual health-exchange systems by the deadline on December 14, 2012. The exchange is an online marketplace for citizens to purchase health insurance.[33]

### Tax reform

Martinez made tax reform, namely cutting the state corporate tax from 7.6 percent to 4.9 percent, a priority for 2013.[34]

### Vetoes

In April 2013, Martinez killed 70 bills, either by veto or by not acting on them. This total was about one-fourth of all measures passed during the legislative session.[35]

The full list of bills signed and vetoed is available here.

### Line-item veto lawsuit against Gov. Martinez

In 2011, Mimi Stewart, Henry Saavedra, John Arthur Smith, and “Lucky” Varela filed two lawsuits against Gov. Martinez over her line-item vetoes in an unemployment bill and a housing bill.

Raul Burciaga, the director of the Legislative Council Service, told committee members of the Legislative Finance Committee (LFC) on May 19, 2011, that in his opinion two line-item vetoes made by Gov. Martinez violated the state’s constitution.

“Some of the governor’s vetoes seem to impinge on the legislature’s appropriation powers and plow new ground in a governor’s exercise of the veto authority,” said Burciaga.[36][37]

That day, Martinez said she disagreed and that the vetoes were constitutional. "We researched the issue to make sure it was appropriately done."[38]

On June 22, 2011, the New Mexico Supreme Court ruled against Martinez.[39]

### Cabinet salary cut

At the start of her term as governor in early 2011, Martinez informed the public that the cabinet would take a salary cut.

"No cabinet secretary will earn higher than $125,000 per year. During the previous administration, cabinet secretaries earned as high as $188,158 per year," said Martinez in a statement.[40]
