New Mexico Gov Breaks Down Special Session; SF Mayor’s Race

10.10.2025 - This week on New Mexico in Focus, we feature an exclusive interview with Democratic Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham, who reflects on what state government accomplished — and what it didn’t — during the recently concluded special legislative session. Lujan Grisham also looks ahead to the 30-day, regular session that begins in January. It will be the last for the termed-out governor. We also continue our coverage of the Santa Fe mayor’s race with the first two of our in-depth candidate interviews. This week, we speak with two familiar faces in Santa Fe politics: Ron Trujillo and Joanne Vigil Coppler are each vying to succeed Mayor Alan Webber, who is not running for reelection.
