The Progressive Voter Alliance is a clearinghouse and point of contact for advocates of a wide range of progressive issues. We do not endorse specific candidates or causes. For an idea of the issues that have been addressed at PVA meetings, check out the Meeting Recaps. For current issues, come to the next meeting, almost always held on the fourth Thursday of the month.

Unified Action

The March 2018 Unified Action is to:

Contact the Doña Ana County Commissioners and say:

“Please increase the annual contribution to the South Central Regional Transit District from $350,000 to $500,000 in order to provide services to northern Doña Ana County and to expand services in southern Doña Ana County. Thank you.”

See the full issue and get contact information here.

The PVA executive committee will determine the next Unified Action at their April 12, 2018, meeting. Suggestions for a Unified Action can be communicated to Cheryl Frank or any member of the Executive Committee. All Unified Actions are indexed here.

March 22 Meeting

The March meeting was informative and engaging, as always. We heard from candidates running for all different sorts of offices: Governor, Lieutenant Governor, County Commission, PRC, and State Representative. As you can see, PVA is obviously the place to be if you want to get to know the candidates. We also heard about lots of other topics, including El Paso Electric updates, a Prius raffle, articles to read, and marches happening around town. You had to be there, but if you weren’t, all events announced at the meeting are posted in the sidebar calendar and the full recap is posted here.

Our next meeting will be Thursday, April 26, 2018, 7 p.m., at Munson Center. Map.
