Q: "What are your plans to help New Mexicans make ends meet?" GOP New Mexico governor candidate Doug Turner: "With the war in Iran right now, the state has earned an additional $320M…I actually think we ought to have…a gas tax holiday…until the price of gas levels out."

Hey @timburchett, on a scale of 1-10, 1 is not much, ten is holy crap, what are these UFO files going to be like?
Every child deserves to be a reader. In New Mexico, we're making it happen more than ever before. We've retrained teachers, invested in proven methods, and watched nearly half our students reach grade-level reading. And we're not stopping for summer. New Mexico's Summer Reading Program, featuring small groups with trained literacy instructors, is free for incoming kindergarteners through outgoing 8th graders. Sign them up before spots fill! #LiteracyMatters #NewMexicoKids #EarlyLiteracy
32,000 young New Mexicans are not in school, not working and not in training, costing taxpayers $623 million a year to sustain. The growing number of disconnected is only getting worse. They’ve been told work hard, get an education, build a life, yet they do not see a path to personal success and growth. The average first time homebuyer is nearing 40. New Mexico ranks near the bottom in education and child well being, while carrying one of the highest tax burdens and one of the worst returns on taxpayer dollars. Bad public policy is shaping a culture of hopelessness at an enormous cost to taxpayers. When the system stops rewarding effort, people stop buying in. Young people see it. They are doing the math. One party control has not only limited balance and ideas, it has created a system that’s failing our young people. What needs to change to make New Mexico a place worth building a future? #NewMexico #Politics #Taxpayer #Public #Policy #nmpol

New Mexico just ranked #1 in the country for drug abuse. This is not a one-off stat, it is a pattern. Overdose deaths are rising, and some counties have seen spikes as high as 340% in a single year. WalletHub ranked all 50 states using overdose rates, addiction levels, and overall impact, and New Mexico came in first. At some point, this stops being a statistic and becomes a failure of priorities. New Mexicans deserve safer communities and real results. How much worse does this need to get before the Legislature takes it seriously? #drugabuse #NewMexico #nmpol
