In all the excitement of our train trip Friday, we forgot to mention some important legislative news out of New Mexico that broke late Thursday night. According to a Santa Fe New Mexican article, the 30-day state senate session ended with no resolution to allot funding to the Chief. The 5 bills proposing funding were not brought forth before the end of the session, and therefore failed to pass.
Though it would have been a relief to see funding guaranteed so far in advance, Colfax County Commissioner Bill Sauble told us in Raton Friday that many still feel optimistic and plan to strategize over the next year.
