General Stephen W. Kearny, during his occupation of New Mexico in 1846, made three key promises to the local population: he assured them protection from Mexican forces, he pledged to respect their property rights, and he committed to upholding their religious freedoms. Kearny aimed to establish order and gain the trust of the New Mexican people as part of the broader U.S. military campaign during the Mexican-American War. These promises were intended to ease tensions and facilitate American governance in the newly acquired territory.
