Death Penalty Repeal in the Land of Enchantment

Diann Rust-Tierney, Executive Director of the National Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty, had a wonderful article in the Huffington Post recently titled “Death Penalty Repeal in the Land of Enchantment.” Read it by CLICKING HERE.

Highlights include:

“The National Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty joins people around the country and the world in celebrating New Mexico’s death penalty repeal. Like the wise legislators in New Jersey and New York legislators who refused to revive their death penalty statute, New Mexico’s lawmakers concluded that they’d had enough of a system that does not deter murders, is unfairly and unequally applied, risks wrongful convictions, and diverts resources from more effective crime fighting and from programs that serve murder victims’ families. Reviewing the flaws inherent in capital punishment, New Mexico’s legislators knew that they could no longer justify maintaining it.

Governor Richardson and New Mexico’s lawmakers acted as responsible, practical and pragmatic stewards of their constituents’ ultimate well being and tax dollars. Particularly, in these economic times, government must take a careful look at all of its programs and policy choices, and given limited resources, retain only what works and works well. After taking a careful look, New Mexico concluded, as have other states, that the death penalty drains resources from state coffers which could otherwise be used for much-needed increases in budgets for law enforcement, neighborhood policing, adult and juvenile crime prevention, substance abuse treatment and counseling, as substance abuse often leads to criminal activity, and murder victims’ families’ support programs.”

Nice usage of the word “coffer,” which means “a box or chest, especially one for valuables.”

New Mexico on the Brink of Repeal

On Friday, March 13, the New Mexico State Senate voted 24-18 in favor of repeal of the death penalty. This vote marked the last hurdle for abolition in the New Mexico legislature. Governor Bill Richardson has until tomorrow to decide if he will sign the repeal legislation into law, abolishing the death penalty in New Mexico.

Please join abolitionists from around the country in urging Governor Richardson to make New Mexico the second state to abolish the death penalty since the 1960s.

There is no doubt that the abolitionist movement is gaining momentum. State legislatures around the country are realizing that the death penalty is unfair, risks executing the innocent, and is far too expensive to fix and maintain. New Mexico is the newest example that abolition is a reality and that the states that still have the death penalty are on the wrong side of justice. Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
