New Mexico advances paid leave and voting rights measures
The Legislature moved bills creating a paid family and medical leave plan funded by small employer and employee contributions, while also advancing constitutional amendments. Proponents tout workforce benefits, opponents warn of costs. Other actions include NMMI funding eligibility, ERFPO revisions, felon voting in prison, and session length and veto reform proposals.
