How to Pass a Bill in New Mexico Each legislature lasts two years and has two constitutionally-mandated sessions. The first session lasts for 60 calendar days and occurs in odd-numbered years, convening in January. The second session is for 30 calendar days and occurs in even-numbered years. Bills in the second session are limited to fiscal matters, items specified by the governor and bills passed in the previous session that were vetoed by the governor. The governor can call a special session, as can the legislature with a three-fifths vote of both the Senate and House of Representatives. Members of the Senate are elected to four-year terms without term limits. Members of the House of Representatives are elected to two-year limits without term limits.

Bill Introduction

Regardless of how the legislature is convened, all bills follow the same path through the legislature. Any bill can be introduced in the Senate or House of Representatives—unlike the United States Congress, where only the House can introduce tax bills. The bill is assigned a number, read twice, printed, and referred to the proper committee.

Committee Reviews

Each bill is reviewed by one or more committees in the Senate and House of Representatives. The committees can approve the bill, amend it, substitute it, forward it to the next committee with no recommendation, or kill the bill by tabling it. Committee hearings are open to the public. If a bill passes its committee hearings, it will be considered by the Senate or House of Representatives where it was introduced. The bill is placed on their calendar, which means it is formally scheduled for its third reading, and a final vote.

The Final Vote

If it passes, the bill moves to either the Senate or House of Representatives and repeats the entire process. If approved in the same form, it goes to the governor to be signed or vetoed. If the Senate or House of Representatives passes a different bill, they form a conference committee to work on a compromise. If the committee agrees on a compromise, the bill goes back to the Senate or House of Representatives for a final vote.

To the Governor’s Desk

Bills that pass both the Senate and House of Representatives go to the governor to be signed or vetoed. They are formally prepared by either the Senate or House of Representatives where they originated, signed by the speaker of the House of Representatives and the president pro tempore of the Senate, and forwarded to the governor. The governor can sign the bill, making it law, veto it, or line-item veto it, if the bill contains an appropriation. If the governor doesn’t sign or veto a bill within three days—and if the legislature is still in session—it becomes law. If the legislature has adjourned, the governor has 20 days to sign bills. Unsigned bills are pocket vetoes. The legislature can override the governor’s veto with a two-thirds vote by the Senate or House of Representatives.

When a Signed Bill becomes Law

Signed bills typically become law 90 days after the legislature adjourns. However, the legislature can specify an emergency, which makes the bill effective when the governor signs it, or at a later date for the law to go into effect.

Members of the New Mexico Rural Electric Cooperatives

ew Mexico’s 18 rural electric distribution cooperatives and generation and transmission cooperatives provide electric power to 80 percent of the land area and to 22 percent of New Mexicans. These New Mexican families and businesses own their electric cooperatives. They control the co-op’s bylaws, vote on any significant changes in operations and elect trustees to direct co-op activities. Their cooperatives provide service to Chama in the north to the oil fields of the Permian Basin in the southeast; to the northeastern grasslands to the Bootheel desert. There are 16 electric distribution cooperatives in New Mexico, 15 of which are members of the New Mexico Rural Electric Cooperatives. The members have invested over $1.6 billion to provide reliable electric service to their members. They employ over 800 New Mexicans as linemen, customer service representatives, engineers, warehouse operators, and other positions. The cooperatives are active in promoting and providing renewable energy resources and energy efficient rebate programs for consumer-members. They also offer a green power program to consumer-members who have the opportunity to purchase renewable energy.

The cooperatives strongly support their communities. They collectively operate one of the largest non-governmental scholarship programs in New Mexico. For example, the electric co-ops have provided over $14 million in higher educational scholarships to more than 9,600 New Mexico students over the past 32 years. They sponsor youth programs such as the Government-inAction Youth Tour and provide safety training in local schools. Eleven of the 15 member distribution cooperatives receive wholesale power from Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association headquartered in Westminster, Colorado. Four are members of Western Farmers Electric Cooperative headquartered in Anadarko, Oklahoma. There are also three distribution cooperatives that are associate members of the New Mexico Rural Electric Cooperatives. They are Duncan Valley Electric, Duncan, Arizona; Navopache Electric, Lakeside, Arizona; and Rio Grande Electric, Brackettville, Texas. New Mexico’s rural electric cooperatives, who are members of the New Mexico Rural Electric Cooperatives, protect the interests of their consumer-members through their statewide association headquartered in Santa Fe.

Energy Efficiency Programs

items, such as lighting projects, geothermal ground source heat pumps, and heating and cooling systems. • The cooperatives offer free energy audits to consumermembers to identify ways to make their homes or businesses more energy efficient. • Electric cooperatives also offer a green power program to consumer-members who have the opportunity to purchase renewable energy.

Electric cooperatives provide financial rebates to encourage consumer-members to be more energy efficient. • Rebates are provided to eligible consumer-members who purchase energy efficient lighting fixtures; and energy efficient appliances, such as electric water heaters, refrigerators, and geothermal ground source heat pumps. • Electric cooperatives also provide financial incentives for new construction, and to consumer-members who retrofit their existing homes or businesses with energy efficient

Renewable Energy

New Mexico Rural Electric Cooperatives are leaders in renewable energy sources. Their Renewable Portfolio will expand to 40 percent by 2025 and 50 percent by 2030 in a reliable and affordable manner.

enchantment Magazine

enchantment Magazine is the voice of New Mexico’s rural electric cooperatives. Since 1960, our readers, primarily member-owners of their local electric cooperative, have grown up with enchantment Magazine. Over 112,000 New Mexicans receive enchantment monthly directly to their doors. Visit www.enchantment.coop to view articles in the enchantment Magazine.

The Seven Cooperative Principles All materials copyright ©2024 New Mexico Rural Electric Cooperatives Reproduction prohibited without written permission of the publisher. Printed by Paper Tiger, Santa Fe, NM.

Cooperatives around the world operate according to the same set of core principles and values, adopted by the International Cooperative Alliance. Cooperatives trace the roots of these principles to the first modern cooperative founded in Rochdale, England in 1844. These principles are a key reason America’s electric cooperatives operate differently from other electric utilities, putting the needs of their members first. 1. Voluntary and Open Membership: Co-op membership is open to anyone able to use its services. 2. Democratic Member Control: Co-ops elect their leaders, who collectively make decisions. 3. Members’ Economic Participation: Members contribute financially to their cooperative. 4. Autonomy and Independence: Cooperatives are autonomous, and any agreements must maintain their independence.

New Mexico Youth Tour Participants

New Mexico’s Rural Electric Cooperatives sponsor students to attend the Government-in-Action Youth Tour in Washington, D.C.–, each June to learn about the importance of rural electric cooperatives and about the federal government.

5. Education, Training, and Information: Cooperatives educate and train their members and employees. 6. Cooperation Among Cooperatives: Cooperatives work together to benefit all co-op members. 7. Concern for Community: Cooperatives are committed to improving the communities they call home.
