Let’s Talk New Mexico, 03/27, 8a: We’ll reflect on the end of the 2025 legislative session by talking with journalists who followed all 60 days at the Roundhouse. Lawmakers passed the biggest budget in state history, as well as legislation on public safety, behavioral health, and child welfare.
But plenty of other things didn’t make it, including efforts to pay lawmakers, expand the length of sessions, and medical malpractice reform. What were you hoping to see from your representatives this year and did they deliver?
