It is very odd that when this Case was decided there was an effort by New State public employees, specifically department of corrections employees were owed several million dollars in overtime pay. They were agitating for a strike to force the state of New Mexico to pay-up on this debt. The overtime was "on" the books and had not been paid to them. This finding by the scotus was very timely and coincidental in combing down the employees of the correction department of the state of new mexico.

It's also worth noting that Coleman v. Maryland Court of Appeals held much later that the medical leave portions of the Family and Medical Leave Act did not bind the states and seemed to be a significant retreat from Garcia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.10.168.189 (talk) 11:14, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
