  • 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.

    Action Alert Tell the Senate Rules Committee You Want Them to Support Your Right to Clean Air, Pure Water, a Stable Climate & Healthy Environments Vote “Yes” on SJR 3 SJR 3 Environmental Rights Act -- AKA The New Mexico Green Amendment -- proposes to amend our New Mexico Bill of Rights to include an enforceable right of all people, including future generations, to clean air, pure water, a stable climate and healthy environments. In addition, the proposed amendment will: ➔ ensure government is focused on prevention of pollution and degradation throughout decisionmaking. ➔ provide protection for the cultural indigenous values of our environment, and will recognize the essential health protections that are provided by clean water and air, healthy soils and ecosystems. ➔ provide a powerful tool for strengthening environmental justice by ensuring the environmental rights of all people – regardless of race, ethnicity, wealth, address, or generation – are protected equitably across the state. ➔ ensure all government officials respect and protect our environmental rights including the legislators, governor, town councils and regulatory agencies. ➔ give residents legal redress to secure restoration of their environmental rights if they are infringed upon by government action. For this amendment to pass it needs to receive early support from the Senate Rules Committee, after which it will proceed to the Senate Judiciary Committee for consideration and a vote. Please join us in telling the Senate Rules Committee to hold a hearing and vote “yes” on SJR3, the New Mexico Green Amendment. Reach out to the Rules Committee by phone or email. The more personal your message the better but if helpful we provide some phone and email talking points below.
