All the states that participated in the class action settlement got $725 million combined.

New Mexico decided to go it alone and gets $25 billion.

Great timing for the AG who’s up for reelection on November 3 (even though it was the previous AG who made the call).

No because that's still subject to appeal, unlike the settlement. "a bird in hand is worth two in the bush", etc.

"New Mexico decided to go it alone and gets $25 billion."

I highly doubt that New Mexico will get 25. Although it would be nice since I live in New Mexico.

They got an outlandish $25B in their local kangaroo court. It'll be appealed and hopefully reduced.
