Hi  John,
 
The Freethought Equality Fund[[link removed]] has endorsed three excellent New Mexico candidates who are in competitive primaries on June 2. As a federal political action committee, the Freethought Equality Fund cannot directly support these candidates, so we rely on our members, like you, to donate to our state and local endorsed candidates. Short bios of these endorsed candidates are below, as are links to support their campaigns. Please be as generous as you can.

Alan Hall[[link removed]] is running for the New Mexico State Senate in District 10. He is an attorney whose practice is focused on private hospital finance, government finance, and business subsidies. Hall is very familiar with the New Mexico legislature, having drafted and lobbied on multiple pieces of legislation. Prior to becoming a lawyer he worked as a regulator of the surface coal mining industry and with the New Mexico Radiation Protection Bureau, where he conducted radon surveys throughout the state. Hall’s legislative
priorities include addressing climate change and moving to an all-electric economy, protecting reproductive rights, instituting pay-as-you-go government financing, promoting responsible gun ownership, reforming the state’s capital outlay process, eliminating gerrymandering, curtailing business tax abatements and similar incentives that stymie competition, and creating a culture of respect for science, learning, and education. Hall is not religious.
 
Neomi Martinez-Parra[[link removed]] is running for the New Mexico State Senate in District 35. She is a former Special Education teacher and vice-chair of the New Mexico Democratic Party. She lives in Lordsburg, NM with her family. She is also the primary caretaker of her elderly mother, so Martinez-Parra is very aware of the difficulty of gaining access to proper healthcare, which is exacerbated in rural communities. She says, “Healthcare should be a right. Our hospitals are understaffed and underfunded, and rural communities
deserve equitable access to quality healthcare.” As a teacher, she saw first-hand the struggles too many of her students had with poverty and homelessness. Martinez-Parra will not only fight for quality education for all students, but will work for affordable housing and good jobs that enable families to thrive. Martinez-Parra is a nondenominational Christian and an ally of the atheist and humanist community. “Freedom of Religion is a protected right under the U.S. Constitution. We are all created equal.”
  
Rebecca Stair[[link removed]] is running for the New Mexico State Senate in District 20. Stair, a film scout and location manager, has worked in every county and every economic sector in New Mexico, collaborating with homeowners, small and large business owners and workers, ranchers, and government officials at the local, county, state, tribal, and federal level. From these interactions, Stair says she has learned “that most of us are unified on the core values. We all want healthy families, good jobs, and a fulfilling purpose
in life.” Her policy priorities include providing quality pre-k through 12 education for all students, making healthcare a basic human right rather than a business, passing common-sense gun reform laws, transitioning to renewable energy, diversifying New Mexico’s economy, and reforming incentives and taxes to help small businesses. Stair is spiritual but not religious.

Ron Millar
