This week on New Mexico in Focus, panelists continue their in-depth discussion on issues New Mexicans will find on the ballot this fall. Included this election cycle are general obligation bonds, which would mean millions of dollars to the state’s public colleges. The panel examines the costs and benefits of these measures.
