Safer New Mexico

The state legislature has passed one crime bill

but it doesn't go far enough.

We still need reforms to increase penalties for felons who illegally possess firearms that often end up in the hands of kids and teens.

It's time

for politicians to finally take action on behalf of all New Mexicans.

It’s time to pass reforms that give judges and district attorneys the tools they need to keep repeat offenders off the street, toughen penalties on illegal firearms, and crack down on human trafficking and dangerous gangs.

It's time

For commonsense reforms that begin to address the problems we’re having now, while upholding New Mexico’s commitment to civil rights and working towards long-term solutions to endemic issues like mental health and homelessness.

It's time

for lawmakers to support the Safer New Mexico Action Plan.
