Senators, please dont let the governor compare our families to terrorists!
(LAS CRUCES, New Mexico) Holding photos of their children and families, more than 200 people representing southern New Mexico residents gathered in the Plaza in Old Mesilla for a silent protest on Monday to tell Sen. Mary Kay Papen and Sen. Steve Fischmann that enough is enough. She keeps talking about terrorists getting fake licenses, said Araceli Alvarado, of Las Cruces, of Gov. Susana Martinez. But Im not a terrorist. My license isnt fake. Im a mom and I have to drive my kids to school. The governor has been pushing an agenda based on fear in the state. And Monday, hundreds of constituents from Districts 37 and 38 told the senators to stand on principle. Any vote to repeal the law is a vote for radical, right-wing, tea party politics, said Jose Manuel Escobedo, Policy Director of BNHR. A vote for repeal is not based on what is best for the state, but based on the politics that rile up the governors base. The Border Network for Human Rights, founded in 1998, is one of the leading immigration reform and human rights advocacy organizations in the U.S. BNHR has over 7,000 members in West Texas and Southern New Mexico.
