"New Mexico Turn Around" and Oil & Gas/Mining Industry Contributions

Interesting. There have been 15 contributions totally $215,500.32 to New Mexico Turn Around. The contributions were mostly given by the extractive (oil & gas and mining) industry. From the New Mexico Turn Around website:

"Why would citizens who love the State of New Mexico, nonetheless, demand that it be turned around?

It is one thing to enjoy the topography, the vegetation, the climate, the cultural diversity and the green chili stew, and quite another to be content with low per capita income, a marginal public education system, perennial blossoming public corruption, and the overreaching and inept state and local governments. What’s wrong with New Mexico? Muchas cosas, and we need to change them. We need to turn New Mexico around. Consider the following, and join the effort."
