Governor to sign bills, promote tax in Las Cruces

While in Las Cruces on Thursday, Gov. Bill Richardson will sign bills related to “child and family safety” and lead a rally in support of the proposal to raise the gross receipts tax to help fund Spaceport America, according to a news release from his office.

The governor’s office refused to release information about the bills that will be signed.

The rally and bill signing will be held at 3:30 p.m. at the governor’s Las Cruces office, located at 505 South Main Street, Suite 145.

It will be the governor’s second rally in Las Cruces in support of the spaceport tax and his fourth trip to Las Cruces since announcing on Jan. 21 that he’s running for president. Following the Las Cruces event, Richardson will head to El Paso for campaign events.
