Bill would extend Santa Teresa Port of Entry hours
New Mexico State Rep. Bill McCamley seeks a $350000 year funding boost to extend weekday northbound hours at the Santa Teresa Port of Entry from 8 a.m. to midnight. He argues longer hours would boost trade, jobs, and state revenues, matching private funding already extended for southbound traffic. The bill passed a committee 9-0 and moves to appropriations for further review.
