This two year study was approved at the May 14-15, 2011 LWVNM Convention in Los Alamos.
The study of the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission (PRC) will focus primarily on two of the PRC's functions, regulation of utilities and insurance, as these are the areas in which the PRC has the most impact on the citizens of New Mexico.
In addition, the study will deal with the structure of the PRC (e.g., whether it makes sense to combine regulation of insurance and utilities in one agency) and how its regulatory board should be selected.
The aim of the study is to develop positions that will enable the League to advocate for regulation that is impartial, free of political influence, and accountable.
Anyone interested in participating in the study should contact Neva Van Peski (email) or Karen Heldmeyer (email).
