Roswell Leaders Tout School Bond for Renovations
Roswell Independent School District officials Burris and Hunt urged renewal of a school construction bond at a Chaves County Republican Women event. They cited four Roswell schools among state top renovation needs and explained the bond uses the state match to fund 72 percent of new construction while not increasing taxes. They noted current enrollment around 10,400 and that district serves about 30,000 "customers" including 20,000 parents.

Republicans reshape New Mexico House committees in power shift
In Santa Fe Republicans advance a plan to consolidate and cut committees as they wield newly won majority power. The Rules Committee backed the measure 10 to 8, with full House approval pending. The plan includes dissolving the voters and elections panel and expanding the agriculture and water committee to include wildlife, while energy and natural resources would cover environmental issues. Democrats criticized changes amid concerns over wildlife versus commerce and the need for a voters panel. House Speaker Don Tripp highlighted a smooth transition, while minority leader Brian Egolf warned the experiment will test party control over two years.
