The New Mexico Voting Rights Act expands voting access to New Mexicans to safely and equitably cast a vote. 

As we see every day now in the news, states all around the country are passing laws that undermine our most basic right to participate in our democracy. These restrictive measures disproportionately impact people of color, tribal communities, students, working families, the elderly, and people with disabilities.

In the face of these dangerous, restrictive, and anti-voter laws the GOP has passed in other states, it’s time for New Mexico to step up and show the country how democracy can bring us together—not drive us apart.

We want expanded voting access for New Mexicans, don’t you? We thought so.

Over half of U.S. states have either passed laws abolishing juvenile life without parole and creating second chance opportunities or they have never imposed such a sentence on children. New Mexico can look to the experiences that these other states have had with legislation like the Second Chance Bill to see that this type of legislation works. This legislative session, it is time for New Mexico to align with the rest of the country and pass the Second Chance Bill into law.
