Rest assured, I am a definite NO on the SAVE Act.

🚨 Today is pocket veto day & Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham hasn't signed HB 143, the lobbying reform bill yet. This is the best reform NM has seen in a decade - our communities deserve transparency!

Did you see our Policy Director's Opinion piece in the Albuquerque Journal? It's time for HB 143 to be signed by Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham - read more here: abqjournal.com/opinion/articl…

“The right to vote is precious, almost sacred. It is the most powerful nonviolent tool or instrument in a democratic society. We must use it.” My good friend John Lewis was right. I will oppose the SAVE Act if it comes for a vote in the Senate.

Breaking news: Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham vetoed HB 143. From CCNM: "We are disappointed w/ the veto of HB143. Thank you to the sponsors for their commitment to transforming disclosures & we look forward to working on more ways to increase transparency at all stages of the legislative process."
