To help the public participate in the 60-day legislative session, the New Mexico Chamber of Commerce and other business organizations have created a website called the Virtual Roundhouse of New Mexico.
LAS CRUCES All New Mexicans, both those now residing here and those who are yet to come, would have a constitutional right to clean air, water and land under legislation being co-sponsored by Sen. Bill Soules and Rep. Joanne Ferrary, both D-Las Cruces, and Sen. Antoinette Sedillo Lopez, D-Albuquerque.
Or, to be precise, they would have a more well-defined constitutional right to those things. The New Mexico Constitution was previously amended in 1972 in an attempt to ensure the right to clean water, air, soils and environments. Sponsors of this year’s proposed “Green Amendment” say that effort failed because it left compliance in the hands of the Legislature.
The University of New Mexico hosts its third Business and Economic Summit, aimed at encouraging a statewide dialogue about ways to grow the New Mexico economy and innovation ecosystem.
Themed, “New Mexico 2030,” the goal is to convene stakeholders (public, private and non-profit) from across New Mexico.
“As the catalyst for economic development at the University, UNM Rainforest Innovations is honored to be offering this virtual gathering for leaders to convene and create,” said Lisa Kuuttila, CEO and Chief Economic Development Officer of UNM Rainforest Innovations. “It’s to the benefit of all New Mexicans that we continue persevering and pushing for positive change. By creating this free online event, we hope to bring even more voices to the table than in years past.”
