Coalition creates a policy framework to tackle housing needs
Jeanette DeDios
A recent state report shows that New Mexico needs at least 58,000 more housing units to fill a years-long deficit. Now a coalition has created a policy framework focused on what it calls practical solutions to increase housing and make it more attainable for New Mexicans.
Cannabis producers, like High Maintenance in Socorro, along with testing labs and wholesalers, say they have lost money during the transition to a new tracking system implemented by the state.
