The following email announcement was sent out to 120 New Mexico legislators and ...leaders on January 6. Representatives of the media were copied.
To: Governor Susana Martinez, Lt. Governor John Sanchez, Leaders and Members of the NM State Legislature
It is with great pride that thousands of engaged citizens, your constituents, will join together for a March to the Round House on January 17 to attend the opening of the 2012 New Mexico Legislative Session.
The umbrella coalition that has organized this march will include Occupy groups from across the state, representatives of the unions, state workers, dozens of organizations and hundreds of individuals.
We will gather with a single, powerful vision for the future of our state – to Give Back New Mexico to its People.
We will gather to celebrate the centennial of New Mexico statehood.
We will put our imprint on common-interest bills such as SB 1 and SB 9. Hundreds of us will attend committee hearings and floor votes to respectfully voice our demands for representation.
We will occupy the galleries and committee rooms and all our offices of government throughout the 2012 legislative session.
Our coalition of citizens speaks with one voice: We are here. We are watching. We are the 99%.
We ask you, our representatives, to listen to us. We ask you to work with us.
And we invite you to embrace our vision – to Give Back New Mexico to its People.
We are New Mexico.
