Scheduled: Not Scheduled

 House Bill 230 (HB 230) creates the Interim Transportation Committee and makes an appropriation. 

 House Bill 230 (HB 230) enacts a new section of Chapter 2 NMSA 1978 to create the Interim Transportation Committee (ITC) as a joint interim committee of the legislature. 

The ITC is to be composed of twelve voting members, and membership categories, allowances and limitations are specified.
The duties of the ITC include development of a work plan and budget, and study of the programs, agencies, policies, issues, needs, technologies, statutes, constitutional provisions, and regulations related to transportation. 

Sixty thousand dollars ($60,000) is appropriated from the General Fund to the legislative council service for expenditure in fiscal year 2025 for the ITC. Any unexpended or unencumbered balance remaining at the end of fiscal year 2025 will revert to the General Fund.
 

 There is currently no Interim Transportation Committee serving as a joint interim committee of the legislature. If the bill does not pass, other resources will need to be found to study the issues identified.
