This evolving story of one student allegedly shooting two other students is raising many issues regarding reporting by the media on such tragedies, as well as bullying, and gun restrictions.<\/p>\n<p>The Line also looks at the Children, Youth and Families Department, which has come under renewed scrutiny after the death of a nine-year-old boy. Will more resources and staff help this department protect children more effectively, or are there more fundamental problems within CYFD?<\/p>\n<p>The Line also looks at the ongoing shortages of health care professionals and the latest developments with the New Mexico health insurance exchange. Shortages are expected to grow even more acute as the Affordable Care Act expands the number of people who can enroll in Medicaid, and as more people sign up for insurance on the state exchange. Governor Susana Martinez is proposing several initiatives in her budget to boost the number of healthcare workers.<\/p>\n<p>GUESTS:<br \/>\nHanna Skandera, Education Secretary Designate<br \/>\nSen.
