An Update On The Campaign For Domestic Partnership

An Update On The Campaign For Domestic Partnership
From The Campaign

The Domestic Partnership Campaign hit the ground running in late August and has been mobilizing our community and allies in cities and towns across the state. Campaign managers Jennifer Rose and Sandra Wechsler, Field Organizer Trey La Fleur, and Jesse Lopez Volunteer extraordinaire, have been leading the efforts to elect our pro-equality candidates and legislators.

The Campaign has been dedicated to working in six targeted legislative races in the northern and southern part of the state. In collaboration with our pro-equality legislators we have been organizing volunteers, hosting phone banks and walking door to door with our allies. We have connected with thousands of New Mexicans who support equality in New Mexico.

In addition to working in these important legislative races, the Campaign has been implementing our legislative and advocacy strategy. We are working in partnership with the Coalition for Domestic Partnership. The Coalition consists of organizations and advocates from multiple sectors that have come together to organize individuals, communities, businesses, and our faith leaders, to work towards passing domestic partnership in the upcoming legislative session.

In the upcoming months we will support our coalition partners host advocacy trainings, conduct town hall meetings, and educate individuals and leaders about the importance of ensuring equality for all New Mexicans.

We believe this is the year we will pass domestic partnership, but we need YOU!

Here are a few things each and every one of us can start doing now:

1) Tell your story! Talk to family, friends, and co-workers about the importance of ensuring all New Mexicans have basic legal protections.

2) Email us at dpcampaign@threesixtynm.com and sign up to volunteer to help pass domestic partnership.

3) Go to www.equalitypac.com and www.eqnm.org and make a donation.
