Once again our water is under threat, this time, not from a Chromium plume, but from a devious plan hatched by the gas and oil industry under the ever so unvigilant gaze of the EPA and the NM Environment Department. Our new Governor must replace leadership at the help of NMED as soon as she…
This is a crucial blog that should be shared broadly. We have an opportunity to do something special in 2019. Time to play offense in our State Legislature in NM. With anything like the energy and commitment that was garnered in the campaign, we can transform NM. No more 50th. Plus info on a hearing…
Wow. What a great week to reflect upon. So many actions and wins, and almost wins that then became wins (XOCHITL). In addition to a stroll down a week of memories, we provide a glimpse of what is to come and how you can be part of it.
So much to report on: LANL’s plume, Trump’s doom and NM’s Blue ZOOOOOM. Today, we report on the Railyard rally, the LANL hearing and a tremendous analysis of what the Health Security Act is and why it is so important to achieving justice. Xochitl isn’t the only outcome that has been reversed and Fl. and…
Today is a special report on last night’s Protect Mueller rally and steps you can take today and going forward. Tomorrow I will share a guest blog on the Health Security Act from Ken Baumann, Democratic Socialists of Santa Fe as we shift gears from candidacy advocacy to issue and legislative education and advocacy. It…
Protests were set up over a year ago in the event of Trump doing just what he did yesterday–fire Jeff Sessions. 39 National Organizations are calling for protests. Links are provided to information for protests throughout NM.
The SOS just posted 8000 new votes so that now 99.2% of votes are counted. And Xochitl has won.
We flipped 7 NM House seats and lead in two more that are absurdly close. MLG, Stephanie, Supreme Court, Constitutional Amendments, all winners. Steve Fischmann all have won, as well. And Xochitl is 1975 down with 8,000 uncounted Dona Ana votes to be counted starting at 10am. We could completely take NM. Details.
Here’s a Guide to help you understand the implications of the NM House, US House, US Senate, and US Governor races. All swing races with most recent polling data for each race.
Today I lighten up on pushing you to campaign, and report on the state of the race in NM and the tireless work of so many who have taken to the streets and phones. The post also includes important info on the LANL plum hearing on Wednesday and the remarkable Beto surge: He’s TIED.
An inspiring day yesterday of canvassing for Abbas, texting for Stacy Abrams and participating in an architects charrette focused on sustainable housing options for the homeless, for very low-income renters, and for the very clever use of a range of misused urban properties. A good day. A brief report.
10.27 endorsersIt is almost over. Links to lot’s of actions & to motivate you: a riveting video of a voter excoriating a GOP Congressman for his vote against ACA, about the voter’s wife and kids with pre-existing conditions & about his promise for payback Nov 6. Inspiring.
Each month Trump’s message becomes more hateful and baseless, but this messaging is what left us stunned in 2016 and it foretells a truly terrifying 2020 campaign where any semblance of democracy is jeopardized. We need to send a clear message now. If you have been on the sidelines til now, get in the game…
Romero is opposed by a write-in candidate whose sole endorsement was just announced yesterday: the former GOP Chair and gas and oil magnate who wants the write-in candidate in the Roundhouse to advance GOP priorities. Please, please, don’t be fooled. This race is likely not over and Andrea Romero needs and deserves your vote.
Lots to share today. I can’t stress it more strongly: You need to take seriously the NM Environmental Department’s permit hearing on Nov 7. Details from Retake and TEWA within. We end the blog with a song from one of our friends, David Berkeley with an invite to a post-election celebration on Friday, Nov 16.
