SANTA FE – The Legislative Finance Committee will hold its May meeting in Las Cruces with an agenda that includes reports on evaluations of the unemployment insurance system and the state Department of Information Technology, higher education’s role in preparing work-ready college students, and federal stimulus funds for childcare providers and others, along with local issues. Here is a statement from the finance committee:
“The committee is excited to get back on the road and into the communities of New Mexico after a year of remote meetings. Zoom makes the work doable but nothing is better than hearing directly from people throughout the state about the local and state issues that are important to them,” said Chairwoman Patty Lundstrom, D-Gallup.
