New Mexico Heroes and Zeroes. On a positive note, we have New Mexico Business Coalition (NMBC) HERO, Representative Sandra Jeff, a Native American (Navajo) Democrat, who has been quoted about the role of an elected leader in a way that is respectful of all people and political parties. “It’s not about being a Democrat or Republican. It’s about an opportunity of coming together and doing what’s right for the people of New Mexico.” Working together for the good of all New Mexicans? Now, that is the kind of talk and leadership we need at every level of our government!

It's Time to Change the Narrative: The results are in - New Mexico ranks 20th in the nation for educational spending. If this is the case, why do our student achievement scores rank at the bottom? Even with the poor rankings, the state has increased the budget for educational expenses for next year. NMBC 2013 Hero of the Year, Senator John Arthur Smith, said “What I have a difficult time with is we are 20th in spending and we’re still at the bottom in achievement. We have been giving you (school districts) more money and you haven’t shown improvement, so why should we give you more now?” The NMBC agrees. Read more HERE.

What a BASH (Business and Social Hour)! The New Mexico Business Coalition (NMBC) Las Cruces Pre-Primary BASH last night was a huge success! There was a great crowd at La Posta de Mesilla as Doña Ana County and surrounding areas got fired up to make positive changes in their community this election season.

Las Cruces Pre-Primary BASH is this Week! The New Mexico Business Coalition (NMBC) BASH (Business and Social Hour) is this THURSDAY, May 8, from 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm at La Posta de Mesilla. Join us for great food and a chance to visit with and hear from candidates in the upcoming election*. Attendance to the BASH is FREE, but we need a head count so registration is required.

Who We Elect Matters: It is important New Mexicans know that voters can either keep or change our elected officials. We can improve New Mexico's position from poverty to one of prosperity, but this will only be accomplished by electing more pro-business officials.
