Great blog from @pn3policy highlighting how NM's tax code does an amazing job supporting working families & helping them afford basic necessities. Thank you #nmleg & @govmlg for prioritizing kids & families with policies like #WFTC & #CTC 🙌 ! https://t.co/KdLU6YuGbi
Of the about 16 million children who would benefit in the first year of the #ChildTaxCredit expansion, half of the children who benefit and who live in families with more than one child would see their families gain $1,000 or more. https://t.co/A0lA85Wy13
And happy Valentine’s Day + congrats & appreciation to #nmleg & NM advocates for sharing the love with NM families by passing HB252 & continuing to make our tax code better for communities across the state! #TaxValentines@iteptweets
"New Mexico’s recent reforms are a stark contrast to what’s unfolded next door in Arizona. Lawmakers there have prioritized tax cuts for the state’s wealthiest families and have done comparatively little for everyone else." https://t.co/HsNBv394vV

We’re here to advocate for strong, reasonable, responsible methane regulations b/c of its impacts on climate change & local health. - Rev. David Rogers shares his #MyMethaneStory w/ DC leaders. More in @CCurrentArgus on why @EPA must quickly #CutMethane https://t.co/jYYJahUs1c
On top of this inequity👇, there's no requirement that the investment even be in NM, so we could very well be subsidizing investment in another state, or across the globe, for that matter. Thank you #HB547 for reigning in this unfair, unnecessary give-away 🙌 #nmleg#nmpol
91% of capital gains income in NM got to the top 14% of income earners - who made more than twice the median household income. Yes, this income and the BIG tax break it gets goes to those who least need it. #HB547#nmleg#nmpol
Friendly reminder that although Sen. Sharer is proposing an amendment to let wealthy folks keep more of their cap. gains, his own tax bill this year (SB38) would have completely removed the 40% cap. gains deduction entirely, with no exception for small business #nmleg#nmpol
"The tax omnibus bill currently under consideration (#HB547) does more to improve economic opportunity & equity in our tax code than any legislation in our state’s history." - @NMVoices ED @NMAmber. Read more here ⬇️ https://t.co/vG9lJUdyVt #nmleg#nmpol
“Policies like CTC have proven to lift children out of poverty while also boosting our economy. We are proud that NM has taken the step to move in a direction to make our tax code fairer”- Marian Mendez Cera- El CENTRO Poder y Acción #SomosEsenciales#nmleg#nm
Increasing the #ChildTaxCredit means that 350,000 NM kids will have greater economic security and better future outcomes. It’s time for #nmleg to expand on this policy and build a brighter future for all New Mexicans! #nmpol
. @NMAmber is right. New Mexicans made their priorities clear–and it’s investing in our kids. Congress must pass my and @MartinHeinrich’s legislation to honor these priorities. https://t.co/1SZ4NQG31g
