CORRECTIONAL REENTRY WORKFORCE PROGRAM
HB 419 appropriates $13.5 million from the state general fund to the North Central New Mexico Economic Development District for a workforce development program targeting formerly incarcerated individuals. The bill creates a program to help people transitioning from prison into the workforce by providing job training and employment support in the North Central New Mexico region. Funds must be spent by fiscal year 2026, with any unspent balance reverting to the general fund. The bill was referred to committees and postponed indefinitely on June 3, 2025, meaning it has not advanced to become law.
