Policy & Guidelines for Political Activities (2024)

Allen Sánchez, Executive Director of the New Mexico Conference of Catholic Bishops, presents the concerns of the three catholic bishops of New Mexico at our New Mexico legislature in Santa Fe. The purpose of the conference is to promote the greater good of humankind by addressing issues of moral concern and social justice as seen through the eyes of the Catholic faith. The conference informs and educates its members and the public about those issues and encourages all to advocate for those issues and the betterment of humanity. Life, being the greatest gift from God, is the top priority, as is concern for the poor. The New Mexico bishops are aware there are hundreds of bills of proposed legislation. The bishops bring their voice on issues for the common good, thereby making public their opinion on some legislation.
