Sign the Petition to Censure Racist Republican Lawmakers

In addition to the censure of the electeds, we call on our legislature to formally act upon the following: 

Add discrimination as an ethical violation in the Legislative Ethics Guide.

Clarify whether a violation of the Anti-Harassment Policy is an ethics violation under the Legislative Ethics Guide.

Revamp the investigatory process for ethics complaints of this nature to make them more accessible in order to ensure that New Mexicans feel comfortable filing a complaint and have trust in the process.

Require legislative anti-racism training to occur on a yearly basis.

Coalition Echoes Black Leaders’ Call to Censure Racist Republican Lawmakers

Recently, Representative Lord and Senator Baca engaged in transgressions of anti-Blackness, public silencing and violence toward our communities in gross abuse of their political office. Lord and Baca must be held publicly accountable for weaponizing their elected office in an attempt to oppress, silence and erase Black, Indigenous and LGBTQ community members testifying at the legislature in good faith.
