767 Hoodies, SNAP Controversy, New Mexico Last in Economic Freedom

from Tipping Point New Mexico

On this week's Tipping Point conversation Paul and Wally discuss the latest on "hoodie gate" including an ethics complaint from Mayor Keller.  New Mexico's political leadership is refusing to assist the Trump Administration in rooting out SNAP fraud. But a recent report from the LFC specifically calls out the need to "New Mexico needs to change program administration to address SNAP error rates and monitor food program outcomes." Paul and Wally further discuss the problems of these government welfare programs and how the Legislature and Gov. care more about the $1 billion annually spent by the federal government on SNAP in New Mexico than really improving the lives of New Mexicans.  New Mexico has fallen to dead last in economic freedom. Why? What needs to be done? Paul and Wally discuss the latest findings and also the new budget data from LFC which show somewhat slower revenue growth from oil and gas but which remain extremely strong.
