Our primary activity is lobbying. We advocated in preparation for and during the New Mexico legislative session for the passage of semi-open primaries, and other good government reforms. We held one-on-one meetings with legislators before and during the legislative session, mobilized volunteers to testify in favor or our bills, created a strong coalition of supporting organizations to enhance our efforts, and conducted additional activities related to this as needed. This activity was conducted in the State of New Mexico mainly by the Executive Director and our contracted lobbyist. Fifty percent of our time is allocated to this activity. This activity is funded by grants and donations. Lobbying furthers our mission by ensuring that accurate information is being given to elected officials regarding our reforms. Lobbying also ensures that we build and maintain good relationships with elected officials so they are more likely to listen to our and our supporters concerns around pro-democracy reforms and will introduce bills that are in the best interest of New Mexicans. 96425 0 100000 2. We educate the public and elected officials about pro-democracy reforms. This included public advertisement via social media and news outlets, our monthly newsletter, informational posts on social media, op-eds and letters to the editor in NM-based newspapers.

Thirty-five to forty percent of time is allocated to this activity. Education furthers our mission by keeping the public and elected officials aware of important democracy issues. By continuing to stay on the news, social media outlets, and other forms of media we ensure that accurate and consistent information is being shared and is publicly available regarding the pro-democracy reforms we and our supporters care about. 21607 0 21000 3.
