New Mexico repealed the tax on groceries in 2004. So it is wrong and disappointing that some grocery stores are still taxing food that is delivered to New Mexico consumers.

If you are a grocery store that delivers and that doesn’t tax food, please let us know and we will give you a shout out on social media.

If you are a customer and have been taxed on your delivered groceries, please let us know so that we can warn other New Mexicans about which grocery stores are taxing food. ... See MoreSee Less

Social Security is partially taxed and the impact is harsh, says Fred Nathan, executive director of the nonprofit Think New Mexico. He says the average beneficiary in the state takes a nearly $700 a year tax hit.

The state legislature is moving to cut New Mexico's Social Security tax." ... See MoreSee Less
