Bill > HB193

This bill modifies the duties of the Legislative Education Study Committee in New Mexico by updating its responsibilities and language. Specifically, the bill removes gendered language (replacing "his" with "the"), clarifies the committee's scope of studying New Mexico's public educational system, eliminates previous restrictions on duplicating studies by the board of educational finance, and removes limitations on higher education research. The committee is now explicitly tasked with conducting a continuous study of education in New Mexico, including its laws, policies, and costs. The committee retains its responsibilities to recommend potential legislative changes, draft necessary legislation, and provide comprehensive reports to the legislature during odd-year legislative sessions by the tenth day of the session. The modifications aim to provide the committee with more flexibility in its research and reporting while modernizing the language of the existing law.
