CALLS TO ACTION

NMBC's Current and Urgent Initiatives:

Ask NM Reps to Oppose the Paid Family & Medical Leave Act!

This program would bring new taxes on employees & employers to fund 12 weeks of paid leave, on top of the HWA from 2022. This could strain businesses and workers already dealing with difficult inflation.
Ask legislators to vote 'NO' on HB 11!

Raising the Minimum Wage Would Raise Inflation for All of Us!

This bill would force businesses to pay more in wages and when businesses pay more in wages, they have to charge more for goods and services. This would hurt and devastate businesses in our state!
Ask legislators to vote 'NO' on HB 246!

We don't need another tax on hard-working New Mexicans!

This bill requires utility providers to have lower gas or electric rates for low-income residential customers. It sounds great for low-income families, but creates higher rates for those above the poverty line.
Ask legislators to vote 'NO' on HB 91!

Say NO to Terrible 'Rent Control' Policies in NM!

Rent control has repeatedly failed in other states, and bringing it to New Mexico would only block new affordable housing development and limit better options for renters. We don’t need to import more bad policies like these!
Ask legislators to vote 'NO' on SB 216!

We Do NOT Need State-Operated Banks!

This bill allows Legislators & the Governor to help oversee a state-managed bank, funded by $50m in taxpayer dollars. More tax dollars would be added each year to support and expand more government programs.
Ask legislators to vote 'NO' on HB 130!

Your Identity and Vote Deserves to be Protected in Our State!

This bill requires voter ID when voting, which helps both election workers and voters. It confirms to the worker that they're giving the ballot to the right person, and ensures the voter gets the correct ballot for their districts. It's a win-win for everyone.
Ask legislators to vote 'NO' on HB 170!

Ask Your NM Senators to Return Election Transparency! 

This bill attempts to obscure and control almost all aspects of our elections at the highest level. New Mexicans need more transparency in our elections, not more restrictions, rules, and secrecy that don't improve our elections, but erode its integrity.
Ask lawmakers to vote 'NO' on SB 218!

The 'Environment' Shouldn't Have More Rights than YOU!

This bill allows anyone to sue the government over vague environmental claims, hurting oil, gas, farming, and other industries. Progressive lawmakers are pushing to make these kinds of lawsuits easier (companion bill to HJR3)!
Ask lawmakers to vote 'NO' on SJR 4!

New Mexico's 'Environment' Should NOT Have More Rights than our People!

This bill would let anyone sue the government over vague environmental claims, forcing harsh penalties on farming, mining, oil, gas, and other industries. (companion bill to SJR4).
Ask lawmakers to vote 'NO' on HJR 3!

New Mexicans don't need another job and economy-destroying bill!

This bill is another variant of the 'Green New Deal,' mandating zero emissions in New Mexico by 2050. This is an unattainable goal that California couldn't even figure out. Do you think that New Mexico would fair much better?
Ask legislators to vote 'NO' on SB 4!

Stop the Backdoor Attempt to Sue a Few Manufacturers and Retailers!

This bill would open the door for gun manufacturers to be sued over actions from a criminal third party, who was not involved in any issue that involves crime.
Ask lawmakers to vote 'NO' on SB 318!
