Bernalillo County being investigated for violating state laws.

'I've had to make sure that I know the processes, I know the game, and that I play it well.”

Well-what a defense. Commissioner says she plays #TheGame well.

What a fantastic #SouthValleyPrideDay ! 🥳 The people, the music, our vendors, the activities, (and even the weather!) really made this a day to remember.

Thank you, Commissioner Quezada for representing District 2 over the years. 🙏

Your love for this community is evident!

So Commissioner Barboa 'knows the game' & 'plays it well.' This is NOT a game; this is hundreds of thousands of people's lives who depend on County services & resources. Don't be so smug & dismissive of the people you serve. Grow up & stop playing games!

That was really, really fast! The story does not end here, however, and it will be very interesting to see where this goes next...

Also, shout out to no-shenanigans Melanie Majors NMFOG. I love her straightforward take on why government transparency is so important.

Organization calls for investigation into Bernalillo County Commission trib.al/0tIKlWB

FOG has asked the #NMDOJ to investigate whether the Bernalillo County Commission violated the OMA by engaging in a rolling quorum. I.e., 'If three members of a five-member board discuss public business in a series of phone calls or emails, that's considered a rolling quorum.'

Hey, Raúl Torrez: You’ve got an egregious Open Meetings Act violation by some members of the City of Las Cruces City Council and another potential violation by some members of the Bernalillo County Commission. Both rolling quorums. Please take these seriously. #nmpol
