We were so excited to have seen the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact be signed into law by the governor during the 2026 legislative session!

However, we can take the same action for many other vital health care providers! 🏥🚑 ... See MoreSee Less

The gavel has dropped for the 2026 legislative session. Let’s talk results.

What we passed:

✅HB99: Medical Malpractice Reform
✅SB1: Interstate Medical Licensure Compact for doctors
✅HB66: Enhancing student loan repayments for health care workers
✅HB29:Enhancing math education
✅HB30: Enhancing teacher residences
✅SB37 Enhancing literacy education
✅Strengthened funding for our strategic water reserve
✅Opposed SB309 - Repealed 30% of lottery revenue to student scholarships

Here's what didn't make it across the finish line:

❌Eight other interstate compacts for health care workers
❌Pathway for international doctors to practice in New Mexico
❌Repealing the gross receipts tax on certain medical services
❌Tax credits for rural providers and health care preceptors
❌Increasing funding to Medicaid Trust Fund
❌Maximizing dollars to the classroom

You made your voices heard, New Mexico! We appreciate your support! ... See MoreSee Less
