Jobs

After reviewing my business plans for New Mexico, the New Mexico Business Coalition

gave me an A grade for being Pro-Market and Pro-Job Creation, and my opponent, JV, received an F. 

Politicians may talk about fixing the economy, but I have an actual plan. I care about this beautiful state, and as an experienced business owner, I plan on making our state a business-friendly place. 

"New Mexico is a beautiful state with amazing people; its time that we started encouraging startups and business relocation to give everyone the chance to succeed." ~ Stefani Lord

Bringing potential business and entrepreneurs to the great state of New Mexico will require a multi-pronged approach. We need to look to other states, like Texas, who has been rated the best state for business 15 years in a row. Public officials need to be actively involved in creating a pro-business climate in New Mexico, which will build a robust economy and allow graduates to find competitive jobs in our state.

Things Texas has done that we should implement:

• Highly Competitive Tax Climate: With no corporate or personal income tax, Texas has one of the lowest tax burdens in the nation. (1)
• Tax Relief for Businesses
• Incentives: Texas is home to one of the most competitive, deal-closing incentive programs in the nation—the Texas Enterprise Fund (TEF). (1)
• Replace Gross Receipt Tax with Sales Tax

We also need to foster:

• A Big, Skilled and Diverse Workforce
• Customized Workforce Training
• Safety & Crime Reduction
• Infrastructure and a Dynamic Transportation Network

Businesses that are relocating also look for:

• Quality Schools
• Cultural Opportunities
• Connection and Mobility

"Texas encourages business ownership through lower taxes and less burdensome regulations."
