I came across an article from Jan 2016 talking about a Pizza Party thrown by the Republican Governor of New Mexico. Apparently police responded to noise complaints from the Gov's hotel room. She contacted police and advised them to call off their looking into it any further. http://nmpolitics.net/index/2016/01/pizza-socks-emotional-outbursts-exacerbate-nms-problems/#
In protest of the Gov's pizza party mishap, upwards of about 20 democrats attended the "State of the State" in NM wearing pizza socks. However, what caught my eye was the blatant boy lover symbol on the socks. http://archive.is/NCI3k
This article talks about how Senate Majority Leader Michael Sanchez had been confronted by the media to see if he would show his pizza socks, but according to the article "He first refused to acknowledge the question, but then changed his mind." https://archive.is/G7di9 Why the hesitation Senator Sanchez? Perhaps some digging into Michael Sanchez is necessary.
Here is an article which shows a pic of Senator Joseph Cervantes actually wearing the boy lover pizza logo. http://archive.is/ERD02
One of the previous articles mentioned NM Senate Majority Whip Leader Michael Padilla also wore pizza socks along with Senator Sanchez. Haven't done any digging on him but I quickly was able to find out he is owner of an Albuquerque pizza joint called Wise Pies. http://wisepiespizza.com/wisepies-pizza-salad-grows-new-concept-called-joint/ This might also be worth looking into.
This could be all coincidental, but cmon. State senators wearing pizza socks with boy lover symbols on them. This sounds pretty fishy to me.

Some Democratic lawmakers are wearing socks at the Roundhouse that make tongue-in-cheek, some say petty, references to Gov. Susana Martinez’ infamous pizza party.
The socks feature cartoons of pizza slices and soda cups, a not subtle reference to Martinez’s infamous Christmas party 911 call.
The teacher’s union, which has clashed with Martinez in the past, says that some Democratic senators will be wearing the socks while she makes her annual State of the State speech, scheduled to begin any minute now.
Martinez got in hot water on Dec. 13, 2015 when front desk staffers at the Eldorado Hotel called Santa Fe police after noise complaints coming from a hotel room she was in.
The front desk said they warned them multiple times to quiet down.
In response, Martinez had the hotel’s front desk call a Santa Fe dispatcher. Martinez told the dispatcher to send the cops off, and explained that all she was doing in the room was eating pizza and drinking cokes.
She said if anyone had been throwing bottles, as the front desk claimed, it was hours before.
Martinez later apologized for the actions of her staff and guests.
