Animal Protection Voters-‐Political Action Committee Issues 2016
Animal Protection Voters-Political Action Committee Issues 2016 Primary and Early General Election Endorsements for New Mexico Legislature Voters are urged to support the candidates who will do the best job of standing up for the protection of animals in their districts. Santa Fe, N.M. – Animal Protection Voters (APV), the leading political and legislative advocacy organization for animal protection in New Mexico, works via APV-PAC, its political action committee, to support humane candidates for elected office. APV-PAC announced today its endorsement of 19 candidates facing contested races in the primary election on June 7, and early endorsement of 56 candidates seeking election or re-election in the general election on November 8. Incumbents won endorsements for consistently showing animal advocacy and leadership through votes and other actions in the state legislature. New challengers and candidates received endorsements based on their past activity involving animal issues, as well as their responses to a questionnaire on topics including wildlife protection, anti-whistleblower legislation, horse slaughter and funding for animal-related programs. APV-PAC endorsement decisions emphasized two APV priority bills expected to be reintroduced in the 2017 legislative session: a ban on coyote killing contests, and a ban on traps and poisons on public lands. A growing majority of New Mexicans oppose traps and killing contests as unethical and ineffective wildlife management and a danger to public safety. “Most New Mexicans support stronger animal protection laws, and we are delighted to endorse a diverse, bipartisan slate of candidates who will represent the humane vision and values of their constituents,” said Jessica Johnson, Chief Legislative Officer for APV. -

DISABILITY ISSUES IN THE 2015 LEGISLATURE STATUS REPORT #6 Jim Jackson, Executive Director Disability Rights New Mexico March 2, 2015 Coming Events: Mar. 11 – Behavioral Health Day at the Legislature House sends state budget bill to Senate. After lengthy debate, the House passed the state budget bill on a vote of 42-25 and sent it on to the Senate. Democrats proposed a package of amendments to the bill, primarily aimed at eliminating some educational initiatives sought by the governor and moving the money for those programs into the funds that are allocated to school districts statewide through the funding formula. The proposed amendments failed on a party-line vote. Potential Senate amendments to the budget bill will be considered in the next week or two by the Senate Finance Committee. Break on through to the other side. Several bills we are following are now half-way through the legislative process, having cleared their first chamber. Senate bills passed this week by the Senate, which will now go through the process of House committee hearings, include: • SB 216, requiring an annual report on the DD waiver and waiting list • SB 42, prohibiting HSD from terminating Medicaid eligibility while an individual is in jail. • SB 43, authorizing court-ordered outpatient treatment for certain persons with mental illness who are predicted to deteriorate without such treatment. This bill was passed by the Senate on a 30-11 vote after extensive debate. HB 222, authorizing Community Engagement Teams to reach out to persons with mental illness and link them with community services, passed the House 57-0 and has moved on to the Senate. -
NM's Working Families Tax Credit
FiscalFiscal PolicyPolicy ProjectProject NM’s Working Families Tax Credit Improving the Credit’s Benefits to the State, Its Businesses, and Its People By Amber Wallin, MPA January 2017 Our economy is strongest when people have money to spend and, while the rest of the nation is recovering from the recession, New Mexico is still struggling to attract good-paying jobs. When people work full time and still don’t earn enough money to cover the basics, our economy is not at its healthiest. Tax credits for low- and moderate-income working families are one common-sense way to spur economic activity and put money in the hands of consumers who will spend it, particularly when wages are low. In New Mexico, the Working Families Tax Credit first passed with bipartisan support under President is one of the most sensible parts of our tax code: it Gerald Ford in 1975. In 1986, the EITC was indexed encourages work, helps to raise hard-working families to rise with inflation under President Ronald Reagan out of poverty, and benefits almost 300,000 children, who called the program “the best anti-poverty, the best while also pumping millions of dollars back into pro-family, the best job-creation measure to come out local communities. Increasing the credit is a smart of Congress.”1 investment in New Mexico’s businesses, working families, and future. Since its passage, the EITC has been strongly supported by both Republican and Democratic lawmakers on both the national and state level, and 26 states plus The History of the Credits the District of Columbia have modeled state credits after the EITC in order to help offset regressive state The Working Families Tax Credit (WFTC) is the state’s taxes for low-income workers while also improving equivalent of the federal Earned Income Tax Credit conditions for families in their states and encouraging (EITC).
