Capitol Report New Mexico - We’ve written extensively about the number of public buildings that have been named after politicians who are still sitting as in their elected offices. Sen. Mark Boitano (R-Albuquerque) sponsored a bill that was heard by the Senate Rules Committee that would prohibit state agencies, as well as local governments from naming public buildings or property after a public official while that official is in office. It would also establish a naming committee to set up guidelines for naming buildings that includes public input.
But the measure — Senate Bill 372 – was tabled on a 4-2 vote. Here are the senators who voted to table: Tim Jennings (D-Roswell), Michael Sanchez (D-Belen), George Muñoz (D-Gallup), Linda Lopez (D-Albuquerque). Those who voted not to table: Peter Wirth (D-Santa Fe), Kent Cravens (R-Albuquerque). Read full story here: News New Mexico
