Remembering Gov. Bill Richardson & Santa Fe Mansion Tax

from New Mexico in Focus (A Production of NMPBS) · host New Mexico PBS

NMiF Senior Producer Lou DiVizio opens the show with headlines from around the state, including an update on the search for whoever shot and killed an 11-year-old in a road rage incident outside Isotopes Park. Plus, more information on the Governor's State of Emergency over gun violence. Then, we remember Gov. Bill Richardson, who died in his sleep in September 1 at the age of 75. NMiF correspondent Russell Contreras hosts a special panel discussion about Richardson’s impact here in New Mexico, and more broadly on the national and international stages.   Finally, Lou speaks with Mike Loftin, CEO of Homewise Inc., who breaks down a proposal on the ballot for Santa Fe voters this fall that would tax homes over $1M, sending the revenue generated to the city's Affordable Housing Trust Fund. Lou also asks Loftin how the proposal could help balance the city’s housing market.   Host: Lou DiVizio Panel Host: Russell Contreras Guests: Diane Denish, former Lt.
