  • Education Spending Up, Performance Stagnant
    Insight Education Spending Up, Performance Stagnant PAUL GESSING | MARCH 1, 2011 During her campaign, Gov. Susana Martinez said that she would not cut education. Based on revised budget numbers that were released immediately after she was elected, that went out the window. Now, Martinez is proposing very modest cuts of 1.5 percent for K-12. It didn’t take long for the unions and other supporters of more spending to draw lines in the sand. Albuquerque Federation of Teachers president Ellen Bernstein said “education can’t take any more cuts,” while Dr. Jose Armas of the Latino/Hispano Education Improvement Task Force recently wrote “Let’s dispel the myth that we’re throwing money at education. New Mexico has been steadily cutting education budgets for decades.” Instead of being “cut to the bone,” however, New Mexico’s K-12 system has seen funding rise dramatically for the better part of two decades. A new study, “K-12 Spending in New Mexico: More Money, Few Results,” which relies on data from the United States Census Bureau’s annual “Public Education Finances” report, clearly shows that K-12 spending per-pupil has risen far-faster than the rate of inflation since the late 1990s. Back during the 1994-1995 school year, New Mexico schools spent $4,100 per pupil annually. Quickly, that number started to rise at a rate that was far faster than inflation with both Gary Johnson and Bill Richardson approving ever-growing education budgets. By the 2007-2008 school year, the last year available, New Mexico was spending $9,068 per year, per-pupil, according to the Census.

The centers have established a solid track record in helping small businesses with their financial capital. This is done through continual business planning guidance and when necessary the establishment of partnerships with lending institutions. The New Mexico SBDC’s are equipped to help you with government contracts through the Procurement Technical Assistance Program. If global trade is your interest they can also help you through the International Business Accelerator.

Just weeks later, her name was being mentioned as a possible 2012 Republican vice presidential candidate. It is “humbling” to be named as a possible contender for the second-highest office in the UnitedS tates, she said, but she’s not interested in that job. She is too focused on serving New Mexico. Martinez was born July 14, 1959, in El Paso, Texas, the youngest of three children of Paula and Jacobo Martinez. She grew up there, graduating in 1977 from Riverside High School, where she served as student body president.

This original mandamus action, filed in accordance with Rule of Appellate Procedure 12-504 NMRA, presents substantial questions of law regarding the constitutional limits of executive power and the Separation of Powers Doctrine. Petitioner seeks to prevent Respondents from circumventing the lawful process by which final administrative rules, duly filed with the State Records Center, become codified and published as enforceable law. Petitioner also seeks to prevent Respondents from encroaching on the powers of the Legislature and the appellant jurisdiction of the Court of Appeals. This Court has jurisdiction to hear this case pursuant to the New Mexico Constitution, which grants the “supreme court ... original jurisdiction in quo warranto and mandamus against all state officers, boards and commissions.” N.M. çonst. Art. VI, § 3. 2. On December 6, 2010, after presiding over an arduous two-year administrative hearing process, the New Mexico Environmental Improvement Board (“Board”) duly adopted a final rule pursuant to the Environmental Improvement Act (“EIA”) and the Air Quality Control Act (“AQCA”), to be codified as “Rule 20.2.100 NMAC.” On December 27, 2010, having taken every preliminary step required by statute to adopt a new rule, the Board duly filed Rule 20.2.100 NMAC with the State Records Center pursuant to NMSA 1978, § 14-4- 3(1995) of the State Rules Act.
