Albuquerque’s Mayor Said Arrests Were “Not the Solution” to Homelessness. Yet Jail Bookings Have Skyrocketed. Under Tim Keller’s leadership, the city has increasingly criminalized conduct associated with homelessness, causing a growing number of people on the streets to be arrested and jailed.

NEW: During his reelection campaign last fall, Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller said you can’t “arrest your way” out of homelessness.

But a ProPublica analysis found that under Keller, the city has increasingly jailed homeless people.

Yep. ABQ, Santa Fe, Las Cruces…

You think you’re holding all the cards and can carry any election, that were safely blue and continually ignoring rural, or not understanding rural communities, failure is more like it

Marty Chavez was correct - The state is turning

In Albuquerque, you can go to the monthly Friends of the Library book sale and get cheap DVDs, CDs, and vinyl records! There’s also slightly-less-cheap DVD Plus at the corner of Candelaria and Eubank, NE. I’ve seen DVDs at several thrift shops in town.

There was a group of men just west of the VA hospital in ABQ today protesting US arming Israel & supporting their war. No pic, as I was driving. But kudos to them!

A white-breasted nuthatch on the ground, in profile with its head to the left and its tail to the right. Its beak is open. A speech balloon pointing to its head reads, "The next No Kings Rally is Saturday, March 28. If you live in Albuquerque, I'll see you there."

I post my images because I know nature’s power to help people re-find their inner balance. But we also need to oppose the ongoing corruption of American democracy, driven by one man's lust for wealth and power. If we do nothing, the country we love will be the next extinct species.

Rio Rancho is a pretty conservative part of New Mexico.

Nonpartisan race, but Republican Gregg Hull (the one running for governor) has been mayor since 2014.

Rio Rancho also chose to not move its city elections to November like many other municipalities in the state.

9️⃣ Let's head to New Mexico: The Republican mayor of Rio Rancho, the state's third most populous city, is running for governor. The candidates include at least three Republicans, and one Democrat who is looking to take over the mayor's office. (The race could go to a runoff if no one gets 50%)

At 4pm today, #Albuquerque reached a high of 80°F...
That is the new record-earliest 80° day by a huge 7-day margin, AND, it's a new record high for the date (previous record was 76°).
Those two records go back to 1989 and 1904, respectively.

New Mexico Democrats push back against federal voter ID bill at Santa Fe forum Democratic officials spoke out in Santa Fe Friday against a federal bill they say could disenfranchise many New Mexicans.

Sen. Martin Heinrich and Secretary of State Maggie Toulouse Oliver on Friday assailed proposed federal legislation that would impose strict proof-of-citizenship requirements on voters, warning such requirements could potentially disenfranchise many New Mexicans who lack certain forms of ID.
