Defund the Police Gabe Vasquez Pushes Crime, Chaos & Cashless Bail

August 25, 2025

President Trump today signed an executive order to eliminate cashless bail in Washington, D.C. and took a direct aim at Democrat Gabe Vasquez’s failed, toxic, pro-criminal agenda that’s made New Mexico cities less safe.

Vasquez has consistently chosen to appease his radical far-left base and push a dangerous defund the police agenda while rejecting the rule of law and threatening the safety of New Mexicans. 

“Democrat Gabe Vasquez’s pro-criminal agenda and embrace of radical anti-police groups prove he is dangerously out of touch with New Mexico families. While President Trump is fighting to protect communities, Vasquez is siding with criminals over cops and chaos over safety.” – NRCC Spokesman Zach Bannon
