The correct answer is: Yes

This law was signed by the governor in March 2020, making New Mexico one of 17 states with such a law. Option B, "No," is incorrect because as of 2020, New Mexico does have a 'red flag' law. Option C, "It is up to each county," is incorrect because the statewide law applies to all counties in New Mexico. Option D, "Only within city limits," is incorrect because the law applies to the entire state, not just within city limits.
