Lawmakers started with an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nmlegis.gov\/handouts\/ZFFSS%20052825%20Item%201%202025%20Federal%20Funds%20Overview.pdf\">overall look at where federal funding<\/a> is allocated throughout the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New Mexico Department of Finance Secretary Wayne Propst explained to the committee that according to a <a href=\"https:\/\/ffis.org\/state-policy-report\/the-state-federal-balance-of-payments-in-2023\/\">Federal Funds Information for States report<\/a> released last week, New Mexico is the top state receiving federal funds. The report is based on data from fiscal year 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe study confirmed that New Mexico is number one in terms of federal funding coming into the state,\u201d Propst said. \u201cFor every $1 in taxes that we send to the federal government, we receive approximately $3.21 back in New Mexico. That includes those direct payments, but it also includes the funding for our military bases, our national labs and other items.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said the state\u2019s overall budget for Fiscal Year 2026 is $33.16 billion, with 43.5%, $14.44 billion, funded by federal money. The Health Care Authority receives the most federal money \u2014 more than $11 million, which makes up about 74% of its annual budget this fiscal year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Propst also noted that if Congress ends up passing the <a href=\"https:\/\/sourcenm.com\/2025\/05\/22\/repub\/u-s-house-republicans-push-through-massive-tax-and-spending-bill-slashing-medicaid\/\">budget bill<\/a> \u2014 which made its way out of the U.S. House of Representatives last week and will now be considered by the Senate \u2014 New Mexico will see impacts to Medicaid; a $290 billion reduction in funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program; and a reduction in the federal oil and gas royalty rate from 16.67% to 12.5%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eric Chenier, principal analyst for the Legislative Finance Committee, further <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nmlegis.gov\/handouts\/ZFFSS%20052825%20Item%201%20LFC%20&amp;%20LESC%20Fed%20Funds%20in%20NM%20Budget.pdf\">broke down federal funding<\/a> by state agencies, including the Early Childhood Education and Care Department, Higher Education Department, Department of Transportation and Department of Health. Chenier noted that as of May, the University of New Mexico, New Mexico State University and New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology reported losing $36 million, $27.2 million and $2.5 million in federal grant revenue respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Legislative Education Finance Committee Director John Sena delved into how <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nmlegis.gov\/handouts\/ZFFSS%20052825%20Item%201%20LFC%20&amp;%20LESC%20Fed%20Funds%20in%20NM%20Budget.pdf\">federal funds are used for public education<\/a> in New Mexico. He explained that the state is aware of several areas that have lost federal funding, including $12.3 million for Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief, which was awarded to the state during the COVID-19 pandemic; $5.1 million for the Teacher Quality Partnership Program, which funded residency programs and mentoring for 68 people; and $5 million for school-based mental health services, which supported programs in Silver City and the Central Region Educational Cooperative and puts 18 positions at risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sen. Bill Soules (D-Las Cruces), co-chair of the subcommittee, added that he wants to see flexibility from the group as more changes are announced from the Trump administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere are going to be things that come up that we haven\u2019t thought about. For instance, we\u2019re getting into fire season and lots of the fire response often comes from the federal government. That\u2019s somewhat more in question now. Is the state going to be responsible to uphold all of those? That could be a major budget area,\u201d Soules said. \u201cThere also, I think, are areas where already we\u2019re seeing some of our small businesses, because of tariffs, are closing down, pulling back, have lower amounts and stuff, which means that\u2019s less revenue coming in on the state level as those businesses close or have to lay off workers or things of that sort.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next subcommittee meeting is scheduled for July 1 and 2 in Santa Fe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>This story was originally published at <a href=\"https:\/\/sourcenm.com\/\">Source New Mexico<\/a>, a NMPBS partner.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Study shows New Mexico ranks first for federal dollars This story was originally published at Source New Mexico, a NMPBS partner.
