Please note: This Memorial was called HJM40 last session; references to HJM40 are to the same memorial to be proposed this session on October 27 Support freedom and integrity here at home! The foundational rights and freedoms that we depend on in the United States are guaranteed to us in the Bill of Rights, the first ten amendments to the Constitution. Regardless of political persuasion, we can join together to assure these freedoms for our children and our future. Whether we are individuals seeking to assure our own free speech and democratic rights, organizations upholding values of political or social integrity, or businesses desirous of the long-term economic stability that derives from a free nation - we can raise our voices together to uphold the basic principles of our democracy. If you are an institution, organization, group, or business, please join our Coalition In Support of the Memorial Affirming Civil Rights and Liberties, by emailing us or calling the New Mexico ACLU. Even small organizations or businesses can wield a mighty voice in our legislature by writing members of committees and contacting all members of the House or Senate when a vote is upcoming - and we'll keep you informed about what important actions your group or business can take. You play an important role if you are an *individual* supportive of the proposed Memorial: you can attend committee hearings which determine the fate of the Memorial, in person, literally standing up for what you believe in and making clear to our legislators that there are witnesses to their actions. The presence of a large number of people at a committee not only sets the tone but lets legislators know they WILL be accountable to their constituents. If you would like ongoing updates on this important legislation (all other email kept to an absolute minimum), Please join the announcement list for ongoing updates as to the status and actions you can take to support the Memorial.
