Representative Natalie Figueroa has filed HJR1 - Independent Redistricting Commission. If passed by a simple majority of the two legislative chambers it will go on the ballot in 2024. 77% of New Mexicans want an independent redistricting commission and only 12% oppose it. IT IS TIME TO LET THE VOTERS DECIDE

See attached Executive Summary of the 2021 redistricting process. Please note the two bolded paragraphs at the end. The legislators may think they did a good job, but the public doesn't agree with them.

These points should be made when discussing HJR1 with legislators

This has been a 4 year project for the LWVNM and has been a LWVUS priority.
