Reform the Use of Solitary Confinement
Solitary confinement is widely understood to exacerbate, or even create, mental illness particularly among vulnerable populations. However, the practice is widespread in New Mexico’s prisons and jails.
The New Mexico legislature is just one of the ways that we advance civil liberties in our state, and we spend a significant amount of time engaging in the legislative process each year.
We aim to support bills that strengthen our rights guaranteed under the Constitution and defeat bills that threaten them. See below for the legislation we're supporting this year.
