SANTA FE – Today, Senate Republican Leader, Senator Greg Baca (District 29-Bernalillo and Valencia), Senator David Gallegos (District 41-Eddy and Lea), and Senator Crystal Diamond (District 35-Grant, Hidalgo, Luna, and Sierra) sent a letter to Child, Youth and Families Department (CYFD) Secretary Barbara Vigil, calling for greater accountability and action within the department. The letter comes on the heels of horrific allegations of a departmental cover up, negligence, gaslighting of caseworkers, and consistent failure of the department to stop the death and abuse of our state’s most vulnerable children.
