The New Mexico Business Coalition (NMBC) is Thankful for Our New Friends from Alamogordo and Las Cruces. Last week was a busy travel week for the NMBC as we spoke to a Rotary Club in Alamogordo on Wednesday and a Dona Ana County group in Las Cruces on Friday. Carla Sonntag, President of the NMBC, is glad to take the NMBC’s pro-business, anti-progressive vision to all corners of the state. And the reaction was GREAT with scores of new NMBC followers and members.

The Truth About the ABQ City Council Election Below. . . And it's Time to BASH!

The BASH (Business and Social Hour) is this Thursday. The relentless drive by progressives to raid the state permanent fund, under the guise of improving education, can get confusing. That’s why the NMBC is pleased to announce that Mark Mechler, President of Citizens for Self-Governance (CSG), will attempt to answer the question, “Why do people who want to raid the permanent fund dislike our children?” Mark is a regular contributor on Fox News, Fox Business and many other media outlets across the political spectrum. Under Mark's leadership, CSG is funding a class-action lawsuit against the IRS for its profiling and targeting of liberty-oriented, conservative organizations.

Progressive and Pro-Business? Alan Webber, latest candidate in New Mexico’s Governor’s race, describes himself as a “pro-business, progressive”. Seriously? Given the foundations of the progressive political agenda that’s not even possible.

VOTERS ARE BOSS: Given all the dysfunction at various levels of government, some polls indicate over 60% of the American population are ready to vote against ALL elected officials, regardless of what party they are in. The New Mexico Business Coalition (NMBC) does not advocate such a broad brush approach. We do, however, agree that we are not going to change the decisions that are being made until we change some of the elected officials making the decisions.
