It would, in the bill’s language, “impose a windfall profit tax on oil and natural gas (and refined products) and to allow an income tax credit for purchases of fuel-effic...
They used to call it “The City Different” years ago. I haven’t heard Santa Fe called that in a while though, I checked last week and it is indeed still different. I’ve written a whole lot of New Mexico Legislature stories over the years but strangely enough I had never been in Santa Fe while the Legislature was in town until this week.

The greatest thrill was being able to do two things at once. You could now prepare dinner as you visited with your best friend. Of course this wasn't without complications such as catching the p...
