McCarthy Sees Split Session A Success For Legislature
Speaker Frank McCarthy hailed the split session of the state legislature as a success while urging higher pay for lawmakers. He argued the 30 day recess prevented real attention to business, noting members stayed busy with constituents and effectively served 90 days. The split session, approved as a constitutional amendment last November, had its first trial in the just completed 15th legislature. McCarthy, the first Chaves County native in the role since statehood, spoke en route to Santa Fe from Hagerman. He will sign the journal and remaining bills upon return, about a week.
