Please Join Us for the 2010 ACS CAN New Mexico Lobby Day!

Who: Cancer patients, survivors, caregivers, and advocates

What: Advocate for Legislation that will benefit cancer patients, survivors, caregivers, and their family and friends.

When: Thursday January 28, 2010 from 9:30.a.m. – 3:30 p.m.

Press Conference at 1 p.m. in the Capitol Rotunda

Where: Roundhouse - Santa Fe, New Mexico

Why: In a very tight fiscal year for the state of New Mexico we need advocates like you who are willing to advocate so that important programs like the New Mexico Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program and Tobacco Use Prevention and Control Programs don’t face cuts. We will also be advocating for a tobacco tax, which will help the state generate revenue and curb the rates of youth who start smoking – a Win-Win for the state of New Mexico.

Transportation: There will be two groups meeting to take the RailRunner to Santa Fe, if you would like to join them they will be meeting at the Bernallio County RailRunner Station (off of Rio Bravo in ABQ) at 7:00 am or at the Los Ranchos/Journal Center station at 7:25am. The groups will be riding the 4:10pm train back from Santa Fe and will be arriving in ABQ between 5:30-6pm depending upon which stop.

If you choose to drive parking is available at Garrett's Desert Lodge in Santa Fe for $7 for the day.

Additional Details:

Lobby Day this year will consist of legislative visits and a press conference at 1pm in the Capitol Rotunda. Those planning to attend Lobby Day will be asked to attend a pre-lobby day training phone call on either Monday January 25 or Wednesday January 27at 4 p.m.

On Lobby Day, Thursday January 28, attendees will pick up a lobby day “survival kit”, which will include a light breakfast, and make visits to their legislators’ offices. Attendees will also be asked to attend the press conference at 1 p.m.

If you are unable to attend Lobby Day, please plan on participating in our statewide call-in day, which will occur in conjunction with Lobby Day on January 28. More details to follow.
