Fined $1,000: Free Speech Isn’t Free In Albuquerque
By Bud Shaver Albuquerque, NM- In 2015 when the liberal “progressive” Pat Davis ran for City Council in Albuquerque, we believed that voters in his district needed to know what he stood for and what a vote for him meant. Not only were we residents of District 6 at the time, but two of the three abortion facilities in Albuquerque are located in this district, the Planned Parenthood surgical facility and the University of New Mexico’s Center for Reproductive Health. However, when you utilize your constitutional first amendment rights in Albuquerque it apparently comes with a stiff $1,000 price tag. (Back of 2015 Mailer to District 6: Mugshot of Davis’ 2013 DWI) In spite of a lack of evidence…

NM Election Rundown 2018: We Can’t Lose Any More Ground This November
Albuquerque, NM- As we work to make New Mexico an abortion free state where every pre-born child is valued and protected, we are acutely aware of the implications of the upcoming November election.

It’s important that we don’t lose any more ground, the progressive liberals in New Mexico want nothing more than total control of our state and that will dig us into an even deeper hole. Abortion…
