Santa Fe, NM — Republican members of the Revenue Stabilization & Tax Policy (RSTP) interim committee recently sent a letter proposing much-deserved tax relief for New Mexico taxpayers.
Specifically, the letter asks that the committee consider providing a 'Citizens Tax Rebate' to every New Mexico taxpayer, funded by excess tax revenues the state collects. Instead of returning these dollars to the hard-working New Mexicans who contribute them, these excess revenues have instead been used to grow the state budget from $6.3B in FY19 to $11.4B for the upcoming FY27, a growth of nearly 81%.

SANTA FE — Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham will travel to Madrid, Spain today to participate in an educational and business outreach summit hosted by the Friends of the National Museum of the American Latino.
The delegation will examine more than 500 years of shared history between the United States and Spain, especially the role of Spanish history in shaping the American story — from Santa Fe, New Mexico, the nation's first capital, to St. Augustine, Florida, the nation's oldest city. The governor will also meet with Spanish business leaders to discuss opportunities for investment, with a focus on energy innovation and emerging technology.

SANTA FE – The New Mexico Department of Wildlife will review its State List of Threatened and Endangered Wildlife Species, pursuant to the New Mexico Wildlife Conservation Act (Section 17-2-40 NMSA 1978), with public comments on the previous Biennial Review document issued in 2024 accepted from April 6-July 6.

Adding or removing species from the state list is a separate process.

News from New Mexico's Forests
Right tree, right place, right time.
In the long process of recovering from a catastrophic wildfire, reforestation is a critical step to restore burned landscapes. We're celebrating Earth Month by presenting a deep dive into the science of getting the right tree to the right place at the right time.
This month, we also peer into the art of packing a go bag to stay prepared in the event of an evacuation. For those who fancy a weekend trip to the Sierra Blancas, we've got a sneak peek of Smokey Bear Days May 1-2. We're also dropping links to the Division's Forest Action Plan 5-year review which highlights cross-boundary accomplishments over the last half-decade.
And don't forget—if you're enjoying this newsletter, pass it on to a friend!
