Rodriguez-Sanchez said she saw a man being detained, & anticipating the use of #ChemicalAgents, immediately ran to nearby Hibbard Elementary School to make sure #children were inside.
She came back to the scene, & said she was at one point shoved by federal agents as she tried to reach the man who had been pulled out of his vehicle.
“They showed up here to terrorize people, & they got a response from the community. People did everything they could. I’m just so heartbroken,” she added….
Since then, federal officers have thrown #ChemicalAgents out of vehicles on city streets, creating a hazard for motorists. They have thrown #TearGas canisters near stores & #schools, exposing #children, #pregnant women & #older people to the noxious gas. And on numerous occasions federal officers have fired pepper balls directly at protesters—in one case, striking a pastor in the head.

#NewMexico joins countries such as #Norway & #Belgium that offer #free #universal #childcare for #children under 3, & #Bulgaria, where early childhood #education is free for all children until elementary school. New Mexico is going further by offering no-cost child care for children up to age 13.
Alison McPartlon, director of the University of #NewMexico Taos Kids' Campus #childcare center, said her waiting list is so long some #children do not get in before they start kindergarten. She said the higher reimbursement rates will help her retain & recruit #educators.
"There will be more centers coming up," said McPartlon, describing the shift to #universal child care as "incredible."
