New Mexico Senator Discusses Highway Bonding and Oil Revenues
Ingle argues highway construction and repair could be funded by a $500 million bond, claiming past highway funds were misused during the Richardson era for the Rail Runner Express now totaling $400 million due by 2025. He notes state finances remain solid despite lower oil revenues, citing oil as a major income source and potential export gains. Senior writer Jeff Tucker remains reachable for follow ups.
