On December 2, 2025 the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice (DOJ) sued Maggie Toulouse Oliver, NM Secretary of State. The reason was for her refusing to turn over New Mexico's full, unredacted voter registration database. It is a statewide list of registered voters containing full names, dates of birth, residential addresses, driver's license numbers, and the last four digits of Social Security numbers.*
The DOJ claims it has authority under the Civil Rights Act of 1960, the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA), and the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) to inspect and copy these records.

As I write this update, I am feeling defeated. The idea of having a warming center to help those who are living on our streets is a wonderful concept. Last season, two wonderful ladies, Kathryn McCarroll and Tiffany Lindsey made it happen. We are missing Tiffany Lindsey this year, and personally, I cannot do what she did last season to keep the warming center going. Tiffany was the only person who was paid last season and it wasn’t even about the money for her. The warming center was her dream and she kept it going for 63 nights, while travelling back and forth from her home in Glenwood. She would plan the meals, send her husband for supplies, see to the guests’ needs, distribute clothing to those who needed it and schedule showers. If there were new guests, she would set up additional cots and select bedding for them. She chose not to do the same this season, and now I understand why.
