AI Summary

This bill repeals the Public Works Minimum Wage Act, which set a minimum wage for workers on public works projects in New Mexico. The repeal will take effect on July 1, 2018, but any existing contracts or contracts awarded under the current law before the repeal will not be affected. This means that the minimum wage requirements will continue to apply to those projects, while new public works projects after the repeal date will not be subject to the minimum wage requirements.
