Let’s Work Together to Make New Mexico Better

This website is supported by people who truly love New Mexico and are dedicated to improving our national rankings and the quality of life for all New Mexicans. 

Most New Mexicans would certainly agree that our National Rankings for crime, drug use, and education are both an embarrassment and totally unacceptable.   

The first question is: What can we do about it?  

To find the correct answers, we must first admit that these issues exist and acknowledge that these poor national rankings did not happen overnight.  

Our fall from grace has been in the making for many years.   

We have been ranked LAST PLACE in Education for 9 years in a row.   

That constitutes an entire generation of students from first grade to freshman year in high school. These students we have failed are the very same people we expect to lead us into the future.  

We can’t always blame a lack of money for not being able to address some of these issues. 

For example, sixteen states spend significantly less money per student on education than New Mexico does, yet each of them has a higher educational ranking than New Mexico. 

This leaves every New Mexican with a simple choice to make:  

“Do we accept this situation and do nothing but continue the same path that brought us here, OR do we take meaningful action. 

 I say with sincere respect and concern that, however well-intentioned we have been and however hard we have worked to solve these problems, our past efforts are simply not working well enough to improve our situation.

It will take a strong will and a willingness to approach these issues in a new and more productive way.  

Addressing these failures with new solutions will not be an easy task, but it must be done if we are to create a brighter and better future for all New Mexicans. 

Let’s all work together to Make New Mexico Better.
