New Mexicans, it’s time to take a stand for healthcare access and freedom. The Dobbs decision has made it clear: the future of reproductive rights and gender-affirming care depends on state action. While New Mexico currently protects abortion access through statute, Speaker of the House Javier Martinez has stated, "I think we’re good. I don’t think we need to [protect it in the Constitution]. But, you know, if the experts, if community groups who work on this issue, feel like that’s what we need to do, then that’s where we’ll go." If we make our voice heard, we CAN get this done.

A majority of New Mexicans support abortion and gender-affirming care, and these healthcare services are life-saving and affirm the dignity of every individual. Protecting access to abortion and gender-affirming care in our state constitution ensures these rights are safe from shifting political winds and preserves healthcare access for generations to come.

By signing this petition, you are joining a movement to demand New Mexico’s leaders act now to enshrine these critical protections in our constitution. Let’s send a clear message: We, the people of New Mexico, stand united in safeguarding bodily autonomy and access to compassionate, affirming healthcare. We, the people of New Mexico, stand united in guaranteeing freedom.

Let your voice be heard. Sign and share this petition today. Together, we can make history.
