Two constitutional amendments face Roswell voters in 2022
Roswell New Mexico voters will consider two constitutional amendments on the ballot alongside three statewide general obligation bonds. Amendment one alters Article 11 sections on the Public Regulation Commission creating a nominating panel and six year staggered terms with limits though the legislature may expand regulatory scope. Amendment two lets the legislature stagger terms for non statewide offices with a Jan 1 start after election day and affects no statewide offices. Proponents say PRC reforms reduce local political influence and align terms. opponents warn of uneven changes and accountability concerns.
