National Campaign
Election Protection
No eligible New Mexican voter should face intimidation, misinformation or harassment at their polling place. We've expanded our program, mobilizing volunteers to answer questions and assist voters.
Priorities
Common Cause works on the national, state, and local level to defend and strengthen American democracy.
What We're Doing
New York
Lobbyist Disclosures
When well-connected lobbyists wield too much power and influence, everyday New Mexicans are shut out of the process.
Nebraska Campaign
Disclosure and Transparency
Voters across the political spectrum support strong disclosure laws. New Mexicans deserve to know who is trying to influence our government with secret money.
Wisconsin Campaign
Fair Courts
We believe that independent, fair, and impartial courts that reflect our state’s diversity are essential for democracy.
Litigation
Republican Party of New Mexico v. Oliver Amicus Brief
Common Cause New Mexico and our partners filed an amicus brief in support of neither party to provide guidance to the court in this challenge to the state's congressional district map.
Featured Issues
Election Protection
Every eligible voter deserves a say in the policies that impact their daily lives. That is why Common Cause mobilizes volunteers nationwide to help voters cast their ballot.
Making Government Work
Our government should make decisions that further the public's interest. But recently, gridlock, hyper-partisanship, and out-of-date legislative process have hindered meaningful progress. We are fighting back.
Fair Redistricting & Ending Gerrymandering
Politicians should not be allowed to draw voting maps that benefit themselves. We need to create a fair system so that voters choose their politicians, not the other way around.
Money in Politics
Citizens United invited huge sums of dark money into our democracy. We're demanding reforms that put ordinary people ahead of billionaire campaign donors.
