Texas got the idea to take Lea County from a proposal made during the #nmleg session by Reps. Pettigrew of Lovington & Mason of Artesia to establish procedures “for the state to consent to the secession of 3 or more contiguous counties”
It failed, but Texas is working on another way to get our oil
#nmleg Truth & Reconciliation Commission is supposed to be wrapped up before the end of the year, but the committee hasn't hired attys to work on the investigation yet
“We may have to change where those goal posts are. … I don’t know until we start looking into it.”

New Mexico is leading the nation in equitable mental healthcare innovation.
For the first time, a state is funding medical psilocybin treatment for low-income patients, access to care shouldn’t depend on your income. #nmleg #nmpol

New Mexico enacted the most significant corporate tax reform of the year so far with SB 151, and took a strong step to prevent multinational corporations from avoiding state tax obligations. Thanks to #nmleg and @govmlg.bsky.social for passing this smart tax policy! https://ow.ly/4kxr50Yx0Gk
Our communities deserve answers, and our leaders are making sure the Truth Commission & AG’s investigation are front and center. Thank you @lujan.senate.gov for speaking out #nmpol #nmleg
DON'T SITE DANGEROUS OIL & GAS INFRASTRUCTURE CLOSE TO NEIGHBORHOODS & SCHOOLS
The answer is simple: Protection zones where fossil fuel extraction isn't allowed.
We had a bill to do this in the 2025 #NMLeg. Industry said protecting children was too costly: www.nmoga.org/hb33_feb2025
It failed.

In New Mexico rape kits have to be tested in 180 days, that's the law
But 7 years after #nmleg passed that law, it's taking 2½ years to receive test results for sexual assault examination kits
680 kits are awaiting testing at the forensic lab
