The bill amends Section 12-3-4 of the New Mexico Statutes to officially designate the tortilla as the state bread of New Mexico. This addition is part of a broader list of state symbols that includes various flora, fauna, and cultural elements representative of New Mexico. The bill highlights the significance of the tortilla in the state's culinary heritage, aligning it with other established state symbols.

In this legislative update, the new legal language includes the insertion of "The tortilla is adopted as the official bread of New Mexico." There are no deletions from the current law, indicating that the bill expands the list of state symbols without removing any existing designations.
