The Free Speech Legal Defense Fund hasn't added a story.
For decades, Garrett VeneKlasen has been a tireless champion of progressive environmental and social justice policy in both New Mexico and on the national stage.
Garrett recently ran in the Commissioner of Public Lands primary and was narrowly defeated by Representative Stephanie Garcia-Richard. Immediately after the primary, Garrett conceded to Garcia-Richards and put his full weight and support behind her. When Garcia-Richard won the race, she immediately put Garrett on her transition team and Garrett has been working with Stephanie to transform the state land office.
For the last 17 months, Garrett has been embroiled in a critical and compelling freedom of speech-related lawsuit. As you can imagine, this lawsuit has caused Garrett considerable expense, stress and time. Garrett decided it was time to move forward and settled the case in November of 2018. There are much more important and pressing things in Garrett’s life to address regarding the transformation of our amazing state, its people, cultures and precious natural resources.
This initiative was created to help Garrett raise money and lend a much-needed hand to help him recoup his considerable legal fees and outstanding campaign expenses.
Your careful consideration is kindly appreciated. Happy Holidays and thank you!
