Guess what? You need #housing to help resolve #homelessness! https://t.co/EzKvuywWtn

[Winter L. Torres @WTLSolutions]

Folks, please show up tonight if you can--and let's talk about data proven ways to tackle #homelessness, not blame them for NM's #crime problems. #HousingNotHandcuffs

Whatever you do, don’t drive anywhere close to Larkspur, north or south I25. Horrific #traffic

[Winter L. Torres @WTLSolutions]

@ColoradoDOT What is going on I-25 South between Castlerock & Colorado Springs????

Congrats, Chief Marquez!

Thread about my recent (all too common) renting experience. A few months ago the landlord of my 50 year old apartment tried to raise the rent close to the max, so my roommate and I moved out. They now are paying for it.

[Winter L. Torres @WTLSolutions]

@JavierForNM Amen!

Twelve years ago, 12 people were shot and killed in the Aurora movie theater massacre. 70 other people were injured.

I’ll never forget the victims and survivors of this horrific and preventable tragedy. We owe it to them to build a safer future for all.

[Speaker Javier Martínez @JavierForNM]

I am incredibly proud of my colleagues who stood together yesterday to expand access to behavioral healthcare and deliver wildfire relief, while having the courage to refuse to pass flawed bills, even in the face of political threats. https://t.co/awMifx9QKe

The ⁦@ABQJournal⁩ does a good job of explaining why myself, Maria Sanchez of the ⁦@ACLUNM⁩, Monet Silva of the #NM Coalition to End #Homelessness, & so many others are so concerned about the proposed #panhandling #SpecialSession legislation.

CCJ canceled Monday’s hearing, but please turn out & make public comment at CCJ on Tuesday & possibly Wednesday. LFC is considering the #BernCo Criminal Justice system Monday morning & #behavioralhealth Monday afternoon.

[Winter L. Torres @WTLSolutions]

My Op-Ed in the ⁦@thenewmexican⁩ on the need to cancel the #SpecialSession & instead substantively tackle our #housing, #homelessness, #mentalhealth, & #substanceusedisorder problems w/ evidence based practices like #supportivehousing.

A pregnancy center can bill the state $14 for distributing diapers that cost the center just over $.25. And before parents can get those diapers, they must take a class that the center can bill the state $30 for each hour of class a client attends.
