"There are 73 lawyers on the Albuquerque division of the CJA panel in New Mexico, and 29 private attorneys who are on the CJA panel’s Las Cruces division" who have been told by the federal judicary they now have to pay for their own translators & they won't be paid for their legal services

Attorneys say funding crisis is urgent in Southern NM because of the high volume of cases prosecuted as part of Trump’s immigration agenda.
