PRIVATE EQUITY INFRASTRUCTURE OWNERSHIP

Summary

The memorial asks the Legislative Finance Committee to convene experts from multiple state agencies to examine how private‑equity control of gas, electric, water, telecom, health and other essential services impacts New Mexico. It would affect ratepayers, utility operators, and communities—especially rural, tribal and low‑income areas—by evaluating risks to affordability, reliability, safety and workforce stability. The study aims to inform whether the state should limit or condition such acquisitions.
