New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez speaks during a news conference, May 18, 2023, at the The Clyde Hotel in Albuquerque, N.M. It's been five years since a New Mexico judge issued a landmark ruling finding that the state was falling short in providing an adequate education to Native American students and many others, and the pace of progress since has been frustratingly slow for tribal leaders. Torrez said he intends to take over the ongoing litigation that led to the ruling from Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham’s office to ensure that the state complies with court-ordered mandates. The announcement was made public Tuesday, Aug. 29, just days after Torrez met with Pueblo governors. (Jon Austria/The Albuquerque Journal via AP, File)
