The Criminal Justice Reform Subcommittee (CJRS) of the CCJ, a bipartisan group of eight members of the CCJ, met four times in Albuquerque to discuss and receive presentations about the state's criminal justice system and the need for reforms to improve that system. This interim, the CCJ heard from many state officials and advocates about how the state's economic struggles have affected corrections facilities and jails, incarceration rates, the incidence of substance use disorders and the prioritization of funding among criminal justice-related agencies. State officials updated the committee about the progress on work to reduce the state's backlog of untested sexual assault examination kits and to implement policies to reduce future backlogs. Several presenters addressed bail reform efforts in the state, including the passage and effect of a related constitutional amendment approved by voters in 2016 and rules promulgated by the New Mexico Supreme Court following that amendment. As in past years, the committee welcomed groups of advocates that presented a variety of legislative priorities for the CCJ's consideration. The CJRS chose to meet at the Law Offices of the Public Defender in Albuquerque, the Office of the Second Judicial District Attorney and the Bernalillo County Metropolitan Court to hear from and directly observe issues affecting stakeholders in the criminal justice system. A similar message was delivered by many who made presentations to the CJRS: the system is struggling from a lack of funding. Several presenters offered suggestions for programs that could help reduce the number of offenders who recidivate and for ways to save money through reforms to various aspects of the system. The CJRS concluded its interim work with an acknowledgment that significant legislative reform efforts are needed to improve criminal justice in New Mexico and with expressing an interest in continuing its work in 2018. The CCJ's interim concluded, as in past years, with the presentation of several pieces of legislation for the committee's consideration and possible endorsement. The committee endorsed legislation related to DWI-related blood tests, resources for victims of human trafficking, funding for drug courts, uniform legislation related to directed trusts and guardianship, bail considerations for certain offenders, immigration reform and the federal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals law and requirements related to campaign donations made online using credit cards.

    History Timeline from 13.7 Billion Years ago to August 2013. 1 of 588 pages This PDF History Timeline has been extracted from the History World web site's time line. The PDF is a very simplified version of the History World timeline. The PDF is stripped of all the links found on that timeline. If an entry attracts your interest and you want further detail, click on the link at the foot of each of the PDF pages and query the subject or the PDF entry on the web site, or simply do an internet search. When I saw the History World timeline I wanted a copy of it for myself and my family in a form that we could access off-line, on demand, on the device of our choice. This PDF is the result. What attracted me particularly about the History World timeline is that each event, which might be earth shattering in itself with a wealth of detail sufficient to write volumes on, and indeed many such events have had volumes written on them, is presented as a sort of pared down news head-line. Basic unadorned fact. Also, the History World timeline is multi-faceted. Most historic works focus on their own area of interest and ignore seemingly unrelated events, but this timeline offers glimpses of cross-sections of history for any given time, embracing art, politics, war, nations, religions, cultures and science, just to mention a few elements covered. The view is fascinating. Then there is always the question of what should be included and what excluded.

    President Barack Obama The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20500 March 5, 2013 Dear President Obama, From the winding footpaths of California’s Pacific Crest Trail, to the Peak of Cadillac Mountain at Maine’s Acadia National Park, our country’s parks, forests and wildlife refuges are where Americans make some of their most cherished memories. Our nation’s public lands are an integral part of our recreational, cultural, historical and economic heritage. Yet many of these iconic landscapes are facing increasing threats from overdevelopment, pollution and underfunding. As a far-reaching coalition of groups ranging from environmentalists to veterans to hunters and anglers to local business owners and elected officials, we urge you to protect our nation’s treasured public lands. Future generations deserve the opportunity to experience these iconic pieces of our American legacy. You can help ensure their protection by calling for full funding of the Land and Water Conservation Fund in your upcoming FY14 budget proposal. Today we are sending you a list of 401 signers onto 16 state-specific letters to express the broad range of support that exists for protecting our public lands, and the programs they depend on, such as the Land and Water Conservation Fund. Each state-specific letter highlights local iconic parks, forests and wildlife refuges that are listed by that state below, along with that state’s signers to those letters. Each state’s letter to the president states: The annual diversion of Land and Water Conservation Fund funds to non-conservation purposes has left a legacy of backlogged conservation and recreation needs and missed opportunities to safeguard our natural heritage.

COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY JUDGMENT AND PRELIMINARY AND PERMANENT INJUNCTIVE RELIEF COME NOW, Plaintiffs, by and through the undersigned, and for their Complaint against Defendants state as follows: I. INTRODUCTION 1. Plaintiffs bring this action against the Public Education Department and its Secretary-Designee, in her official capacity only, because Defendants have implemented a fundamental change in the manner in which teachers are evaluated in New Mexico. As detailed in this Complaint, that change is based on a fundamentally, and irreparably, flawed methodology which is further plagued by consistent and appalling data errors. As a result, teachers are being evaluated, and employment decisions made, based on a process that is, at best, arbitrary and capricious. 2. Due to the problems with the evaluation methodology detailed herein, Defendants have or are about to violate Plaintiffs’ constitutional rights, violate the statutory authority under which they operate, and violate other provisions of law. Plaintiffs seek declaratory and injunctive relief. II. PARTIES, JURISDICTION, AND VENUE 3. Plaintiff the Honorable Senator Mimi Stewart is the elected Senator from District 17 (Bernalillo County).

The committee recommendation for recurring appropriations from the general fund is a little more than requested at $7.36 billion, up $298.4 million, or 4 percent, from FY21 spending levels. While revenues in FY21 are expected to decline from the current year, and revenues for the current year are down from the prior year, the state is in a better position than initially anticipated, with good financial planning by the Legislature and federal stimulus support to businesses and the unemployed partially offsetting the effects of a pandemic-induced gutting of the economy and a crash in oil prices and production.
