Impeachment Resolution Stalled in NM Senate (Pass it on!)

[helderheid]

Call your Senator – NOW!

In a procedural move by Senate Republicans in the New Mexico Senate, the Impeachment resolution was stalled yesterday to prevent full debate on the Floor. During the ordinarily mundane reading of committee reports, wherein the Senate is informed of the decisions of the various Committees, the Republicans decided to block "adoption" of the Judiciary Committee report containing the resolution. They were successful in a voice vote largely because the Democrats, caught completely off guard, were not on hand in number to oppose the motion.

Majority Leader Michael Sanchez successfully held the roll call vote until the Democrats could be present in number. The roll call vote will happen some time today (Thursday).

They need to hear from you! Please call your Senator and ask him/her to vote in support of Impeachment Resolution SJR 5 in the roll call vote. The capitol switchboard number is 986-4300.
