PRC Evicted From State Office

September 4, 2020 – Gene Grant and The Line opinion panel discuss mounting tension between Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham and the Public Regulation Commission, as the PRC is being evicted from its headquarters in downtown Santa Fe. The governor plans to use the office space to place the newly created Early Childhood Education and Care Department in the same building as the Children, Youth and Families Department. But the change comes with neither the promise of other state-owned office space nor funding for rent by the PRC.
