The Senate Judiciary Committee handled several items with short presentations or no registered opposition and issued due‑pass recommendations or otherwise advanced those measures.
- Senate Bill 179 — Electronic disclosures under the New Mexico Rental Purchase Agreement Act: Sponsor explained the bill permits required disclosures to be delivered electronically in a conspicuous manner and allows a printed copy if the consumer requests one. No registered opposition; committee gave a due‑pass recommendation.
- Senate Bill 123 — Amend Regional Transit Act to authorize law‑enforcement officers on transit property: Sponsor said the bill authorizes RTDs to create their own transit law‑enforcement agency, with peace‑officer powers on district property and required training. No registered opposition; committee gave a due‑pass recommendation.
- Senate Bill 63 — Retirement of the New Mexico state flag: Sponsor (Senator Ezell) described the bill as guidance for respectful retirement of state flags, mirroring long‑standing guidance used for the U.S. flag. There was no registered opposition; the committee gave a due‑pass recommendation.
Each of these items proceeded without extended debate and will move to the full Senate with the committee’s recommendation.
