Governor to Sign Tax Reform Bill Today

Susana Martinez

Efforts to make New Mexico a bit more competitive were successful in the recent legislature. Governor Susana Martinez will sign tax reform legislation today at Yearout Mechanical in Albuquerque.
House Bill 184/256 will change some of the most unfair and burdensome double and triple taxation of goods and services in New Mexico's construction and manufacturing sectors.

The tax reform package will reduce the financial burden on small business construction contractors, as well as on manufacturers, allowing for new hiring, reducing the cost to consumers of products and new construction. Expected to be on hand for the signing are, Economic Development Department Secretary Jon Barela, Department of Finance and Administration Secretary Tom Clifford, Rep. David Doyle (R-Albuquerque), Rep. Conrad James (R-Albuquerque) plus a number of New Mexico business leaders.
