Public Safety Day at the New Mexico State Capitol

Public safety is not a partisan issue — it is a fundamental responsibility of government and a shared concern for every New Mexican.

 

Across our state, families, business owners, first responders, and community leaders are feeling the impact of rising crime, repeat offenders, and a system that too often fails the very people it is meant to protect. The consequences are real, and they are being felt in every community.

 

That is why I am inviting you to attend Public Safety Day at the New Mexico State Capitol — an inaugural event focused on elevating frontline voices and demanding meaningful, practical action to improve safety across our state.

 

This gathering will bring together first responders, law enforcement, victim advocates, business owners, community organizations, and concerned citizens to share perspectives, identify priorities, and reinforce the urgent need for accountability and reform.

 

Date: Wednesday, January 21  

Time: 11:00 a.m.  

Location: New Mexico State Capitol (Roundhouse)  

Senate Finance Room (Room 322)

 

Your presence matters. Whether you serve on the front lines, represent an organization, run a business, or simply care about the safety of your family and community — your voice deserves to be heard at the Capitol.

 

I hope you will join us for this important first step in shaping stronger public safety outcomes for New Mexico.
