Strict DUI and vehicular homicide laws

The Issue

My brother was killed on the side of the highway near Alamogordo by a drunk driver while he was changing a flat tire for a friend who was also hit and killed. The woman who committed this crime did not get the justice that was needed for taking two very important lives. Life is never the same when someone is taken so suddenly, and by such a horrific act. I’m looking to diminish the leniency of punishment when it comes to drinking and driving New Mexico has. I would love your help in making this a reality.
