Yes, New Mexico has a health care worker shortage📉. But don't just take it from us. Take it from the countless number of New Mexicans who have voiced their concerns about lengthy wait times or those who have said they have had to travel out-of-state to receive the care they need. 🏥

The bottom line: We have a shortage. But together, we can work together to strengthen laws that will not only attract new providers, but also keep the ones we currently have. 👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️

New Mexico, it's about time we adopt the compact for Physician Assistants! 🚑🏥

Adopting the PA Compact, among other interstate licensure compacts for health care workers, will allow more health care providers to practice here in New Mexico.

What does that mean for you? More providers to choose from and shorter wait times. ⏳⏰

DID YOU KNOW:

The amount of students that a teacher has to manage in a classroom can directly impact the quality of education that your child receives! Large classrooms hinder a teachers ability to provide direct attention to each of their students. 👩‍🏫🏫

A 2023 poll conducted by BSP Research showed that an overwhelming majority of respondents believe that class sizes in New Mexico are too big and that a law should be passed to limit the number of students in elementary school classrooms. 🍎✏️

Research shows that smaller class sizes are associated with higher student performance in elementary years! 🏫

We are glad to be working with the following core groups to develop a civics seal to encourage New Mexican students to excel in social studies, government and politics!

08/19/2026

Did you know: 👇

37 states require students to earn civics credits in order to graduate from high school. In New Mexico, we could take it one step further to reward our students who excel in politics, government and social studies - a civics diploma seal! Several states have already implemented civics diploma seals for graduating students! 🏫⚖

We agree! 🤝

A civics seal would acknowledge student achievement and engagement in civics learning. The goal is to have informed voters, a pipeline of innovative public policy makers, and citizens who have a strong sense of belonging in their schools and their communities.

Similar to a bilingual language/literacy seal, New Mexico could soon offer a seal for students who excel in civic knowledge and engagement! ⚖️📜🏛️

What would that mean for New Mexico students? Swipe to learn more! 👇

Teacher residencies don't just provide our students with a better learning experience and teachers with more confidence- they also help retain our educators. 🍎💙

Teachers who also participate in a residency program are also known to stay in the profession twice as long as teachers who don't complete a residency!
