People have asked for Governor Martinez’s contact information so they can voice their support of House Bill 55. I also have included the NM Legislature website link so you can get the contact info there and let all the Legislators know your heartfelt opinion. Your calls make a difference, I remember one time years ago when Gov. Richardson was in office and we asked the KKIM radio family to call him and the Legislature and the switch board operator called me and asked if we would have our people stop calling!!!!!! Burn the lines up folks!
House Bill 55
NM Representatives David Gallegos and Nora Burnette Espinoza explained yesterday at the rally at New Beginnings Church that the proposed changes necessary for both the NM Religious Freedom Restoration Act and Human Rights Act to better reflect the rights, freedoms, and protected beliefs of all NM citizens. Stressing the bill is not about discrimination, hatred, or prejudice, but changing wording to insure mutual respect for all citizens and clarifying statutes, the speakers urged New Mexicans to contact the Governor’s office to get this bill on the agenda for this session and contact your legislators to then support this bill. Please let your voices be heard concerning HB 55… We only have until Tuesday to get this measure on the agenda… call and email the Governor and your district Representatives.
