Bill > HB85

This bill creates the "Missing in New Mexico Event", an annual event hosted by the Department of Public Safety in collaboration with the Missing Persons Information Clearinghouse. The event aims to provide an opportunity for federal, state, local, and tribal governments to assist families in filing or updating missing persons reports, submitting DNA records, and accessing support services. The bill also amends the existing Missing Persons Information and Reporting Act to designate the Clearinghouse as the host for this annual event, which is intended to help New Mexican families with missing relatives by facilitating access to resources and encouraging cooperation between various government agencies. The bill declares an emergency, allowing it to take effect immediately.
