I testified yesterday on a bill that would eliminate New Mexico's income tax. Here's what I said and here's what happened. Speaking of zero income tax states, IN & OUT burger chain moves to Tennessee from California. PFML will finally be considered in its 2nd committee on Wednesday. Paul and Wally discuss what that means. NM Democrats seem to have settled on a plan to raise alcohol taxes. SB 139 which would have eliminated MLG's EV mandate was defeated in its first committee on partisan lines. A "study" claims UNM athletics creates a big economic benefit for New Mexico. We appreciate collegiate sports but take the study with a big grain of salt. How's the NM "Portfolio" doing? We have an update. New Mexicans spend 6th most on groceries as a percent of income according to a new report.…

On this week's interview Paul talks to return guest, author, and commentator Philip K. Howard about DOGE. For advocates of limited government DOGE is the most exciting effort to cut wasteful spending and bring functionality to the federal government that we have seen since at least the Grace Commission during the Reagan Administration. Howard and Gessing have a robust discussion of DOGE and numerous aspects of its mission and activities so far. They address whether Congress will go along with DOGE, whether there are more effective potential ways to streamline government, and whether this effort will ultimately succeed. More information about Philip K. Howard's work can be found at his Common Good website and at his recent Manhattan Institute paper .…

Super Bowl: game wasn't so great, but great to see America celebrated and Trump cheered. A bill relating to expanding Medicaid is moving through the session. This is madness! Now MLG is the education reformer? This one is a doozie! I went on KOAT 7 to discuss a crazy bill that would hand our tax dollars to UNM and NMSU to pay athletes. HB 11 PFML remains bottled up in committee. Some lawmakers even blame us for "bullying." A bill to increase royalties (taxes paid on oil and gas) is moving through the Legislature. A recent op-ed running across New Mexico by our policy analyst Carter Swanson ran in the ABQ Journal last week.…

A judge has ruled that MLG overreached in attempting to force districts to adopt 5 day school weeks. Paul and Wally discuss the latest from the Roundhouse. National Assessment of Educational Progress ( NAEP) scores came out last week. New Mexico again brings up the rear. Tennessee becomes 13th state in US to adopt universal school choice. According to the latest EV sales numbers New Mexico is nowhere near the mark. SB 139 introduced this session would overturn the Gov.'s EV mandates. Surprisingly New Mexico is not ranked very highly as a retirement destination. Ilya Shapiro will be speaking at an RGF event on Feb. 21.…

It's been a week since the Legislature began. Paul has been to Santa Fe twice and discusses what is happening. SB4 (net zero) is one of the craziest bills that will be moving this week. MLG gave her State of the State address. We have some thoughts. The Santa Fe New Mexican did a fact check of the address. RGF is part of a coalition working to defeat Paid Family Leave. Find out more here. Paul had an opinion piece in several media outlets on alcohol taxes and why raising them is unnecessary. New Mexico has the lowest median pay in America : DC workers now make nearly two and a half times as much as the average New Mexico resident. ABQ bus ridership continues to slowly rebound post-COVID. Mayor Keller's latest scheme in downtown Albuquerque is particularly dumb. The WNMU situation keeps getting worse.…

Donald Trump was (again) inaugurated president of the United States on Monday. Paul and Wally discuss and address issues w/ Biden's presidency. Biden issued more pardons on his way out the door including for Anthony Fauci, Mark Milley, and several family members. More pardons have been issued by Biden than any other president in American history. Biden even attempted to declare the Equal Rights Amendment the 28th amendment to the US Constitution. The LFC budget (like MLG's) is ALSO a dud for New Mexico taxpayers. Yes, New Mexico could/should eliminate NM's personal income tax. NM Women's Specialists to stop delivering babies at Presbyterian citing New Mexico's tax, malpractice, and Medicaid. Also, NM House Dems outline their health care plans for session (which don't do anything for the doctor shortage). Paul has been watching the TV show Landman. He recommends this short, profanity laced talk by actor Billy Bob Thornton about the importance of oil and gas.…

Paul and Carol begin by discussing issues with the City of Albuquerque over the City's incorrect (by admission) calculation of its minimum wage law. Carol explains why this is not "restaurant greed," but actually an issue of fairness between front-of-the-house and back-of-the-house workers. They discuss issues in the upcoming 2025 legislative session, most especially paid family leave. They address other issues in the upcoming legislative session as well including New Mexico's generally anti-business political climate. Check out this interview, the last of 2024!…
