In August 2014, Susana Martinez proposed re-imposing and broadening "work-related requirements on low-income New Mexicans to qualify for food stamps." The state planned "to restore a 20-hour-a-week work requirement for an estimated 26,600 childless adults to get food stamps," according to Fox Business.^[1]

In March 2014, Martinez's administration created a rule which prohibited "welfare recipients from using their cash assistance cards at gambling establishments, liquor stores and strip clubs," according to The Albuquerque Journal.^[2]

During her 2013 State of the State speech, after Martinez announced the expansion of Medicaid in New Mexico she said, "But I‟ve been clear: Medicaid expansion is a federal government commitment and if they should ever break their funding promise, New Mexico will not pick up the burden of adults most recently added to the program at the expense of cutting health care for New Mexico kids. I will not let those kids pay the price."^[3]
