Albuquerque, New Mexico’s mayor Tim Keller wore a PANTERA Christmas sweater for the signing of a bill granting family paid parental leave to city employees. The legislation made Albuquerque the first city in New Mexico to extend paid parental leave benefits to its municipal workforce.
Tim Keller is well-known as a fan of heavy metal music and has often attended shows in the city. He has also introduced metal bands, including ANTHRAX and TRIVIUM, onstage.
Not every city has a mayor with a #Pantera Christmas sweater, much less a mayor who would wear it. But ours did to a press conference, and that’s why we love him. (also kudos @MayorKeller for signing my bill to give 12 weeks of leave to new parents in @CABQ !) #momlife #dadlife pic.twitter.com/C0RUqSYTnU
