What happened
Gregg Hull, a House Democrat and tax committee chair, introduced a plan to gradually phase out the personal income tax system in New Mexico. The proposal would begin with taxpayers earning less than $25,000 per year, or $50,000 for a married couple filing jointly. Successful implementation would require legislative approval and could ultimately cost the state over $2 billion annually.

Why it matters
Hull stated the tax policy shift could provide financial relief to state taxpayers and help reverse trends of healthcare professionals leaving the state. The plan aims to attract professionals such as engineers, architects, and doctors back to the state.
