[LWVNM Action] NM House has fulfilled its major redistricting responsibilities

[Richard Mason]

 Today Senate Judiciary passed a substitute that was opposed by Native Americans.The previous SB2 was supported by Native Americans. This is what happens when deals are made in backrooms.
Goes to the Senate floor unless there is a fix..

Good to hear!

Which is the map they're still considering for the state senate?
Is that SB2? so the map they're debating is the one that I get
when I go to
https://www.nmlegis.gov/Legislation/Legislation?chamber=S&legType=B&legNo=2&year=21s2
and click on "SENATE - SJC SUB Maps and Date", in other words
https://www.nmlegis.gov/Redistricting2021/Maps_And_Data?ID202=221738.1
?
