High Desert Construction
A licensed contractor, Mark Feldman has designed and built 200 homes in New Mexico. Some are dramatic, contemporary cliffhangers. Others are more traditional adobe haciendas. Respect for local architectural traditions and attention to detail are common elements in all of his work, with the client's needs put first, ahead of any preconceived design solutions. Mark earned a master's degree in architecture from the University of New Mexico and worked as an energy management specialist in the early 1980's. One of New Mexico's solar pioneers, his homes have been featured in Su Casa magazine, New Mexico magazine (PDF), and the Albuquerque Journal, among other publications.


NARAL Pro-Choice New Mexico
As essential to American freedom as our right to think, vote, worship, work and marry, is our right to privacy. This very basic and necessary right includes having access to safe and legal abortion, effective contraceptive options, and quality reproductive health care. But unlike the other rights we expect as Americans, this is not one we can take for granted.

Our goal at NARAL Pro-Choice New Mexico is to help find workable answers that will ultimately reduce the need for abortions. Ignoring shortcomings in access to contraception, reproductive health care, and sex education while ripping away a woman's right to choose will only result in more unintended pregnancies and more abortions. This shortsighted approach is neither American nor life affirming.

   

Common Cause New Mexico
Promoting Accountable Government
Common Cause New Mexico has made a difference. We have been on the front lines of numerous hard fought battles for government reform and accountability. In the past 27 years, we have been instrumental in the implementation of key state and municipal reform measures, including voluntary public financing of campaigns for citywide races in Albuquerque, voluntary public financing of campaigns for the NM Public Regulation Commission, online campaign finance reporting, the merit selection of judges, the Lobbyist Disclosure Act, the Campaign Practices Act, the Open Meetings Act and ethics reform legislation like the bill to create the Office of the Inspector General in Albuquerque.

Get Involved in a Smart Way: Join Us
Today, over 300,000 Common Cause members and supporters -- among them over 3,200 New Mexicans -- are working together to make government work for the people. More members mean a stronger voice for the public in local, state and national politics.  If you're not already a member please join.


 


Conservation Voters of New Mexico 

CVNM is a family of organizations. Laws that protect our water, land and air are quietly under attack at all levels of government without regard for our children, our jobs or our future. Conservation Voters New Mexico works to defend both our jobs and our environment for generations to come. In concert with our PAC, Conservation Voters New Mexico Action Fund, we elevate the importance of conservation issues in the legislative process, empower people to participate in the political process, and elect candidates that will fight to protect our water, land and air.

For decades in New Mexico, short-term profit for the few has triumphed over long-term environmental protection for the many. The time for change is now. Your vehicles to make this change are Conservation Voters New Mexico and the Conservation Voters New Mexico Action Fund.

Our Missions:
Conservation Voters New Mexico, a nonpartisan, non-profit 501c(4) organization, works to protect New Mexico’s natural environment and our cherished way of life. Our mission is to make sensible conservation policies a top priority for elected officials, political candidates, and voters across the state. We do this by:

Educating legislators and the public on critical conservation issues;

Lobbying on behalf of pro-conservation legislation;

Holding legislators accountable for decisions that impact the environment; and

Endorsing and electing pro-conservation candidates to public office.
