The next chapter of New Mexico’s “Breaking Bad Habits” anti-litter campaign features one of the most notorious duos in television history.
The Salamanca cousins will headline the next installment of the campaign, which has the cousins speak Spanish with English subtitles.
“Breaking Bad Habits” first launched in October 2024 under the leadership of Lujan Grisham with Bryan Cranston reviving the legendary role of Walter White in a PSA directed by “Breaking Bad” creator Vince Gilligan.
Since then, the commercial has been viewed more than 50 million times, and a coordinated cleanup campaign has resulted in more than 10,000 bags of trash collected around the state.
The latest iteration of the in-state campaign will run through June 2026 and will include placements in local broadcasts, connected television, social media and various outdoor placements, such as billboards, bus wraps and more.
“If anyone can convince New Mexicans to think twice about littering it’s these scary dudes,” said Lujan Grisham. “It’s an exceptionally entertaining commercial that I know will accelerate the success of the Breaking Bad Habits campaign. I’m grateful to Vince Gilligan, actors Daniel and Luis Moncada, and Sony for their contribution to this campaign and for their commitment to keeping New Mexico beautiful.”
The campaign encourages New Mexicans to report illegal dumping, sign up for a volunteer cleanup events, learn more about the initiative and more. Residents are also encouraged to share their commitment and contributions to the campaign on social media by using the hashtags #BreakingBadHabits and #KeepLitterOut. Information on how residents can contribute is available on breakingbadhabits.nm.gov.
The overall budget for this campaign is $2.9 million, funded through a special appropriation provided to the New Mexico Tourism Department during the 2025 Legislative Session.
