Welcome to the New Mexico Office of
Recovery and Reinvestment

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act will boost our economy by helping states plug budget gaps and avoid cuts to critical programs such as education, health care, and law enforcement. It will help create jobs and improve our economy by modernizing our nation's infrastructure, enhance our energy independence, expand educational opportunities, and provide tax relief.

Transparency and accountability are important and have been built into the process. This web site is an important tool in that effort and is designed to help citizens understand how the ARRA money is being used in New Mexico.

Stimulus spending is well underway. This is an opportunity to put people back to work, boost our economy, and prepare New Mexico for the challenges of the 21st century.

Reporting System

Procurement Library For Stimulus Funds Tracking and
Reporting System

New Mexico Integrated Strategic Broadband Initiative

Governor Richardson's Office and the New Mexico Department of Information Technology are organizing applications from throughout the state for federal broadband 'stimulus' funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). The New Mexico Integrated Strategic Broadband Initiative (NM-ISBI) serves as the strategic guidance for the approach being used by the State. In this approach, the State will aggregate its demand and serve as the "anchor" for ensuring broadband access in sufficient bandwidth is available to public institutions in over 90 communities throughout the state. This includes all school districts, all four-year community and branch colleges, state libraries, tele-healthcare centers, public safety facilities, supercomputer gateways and government offices.

In addition, the State is requesting information from any entity (native community, telecom provider, public institution, private sector, county, city or regional, other) that is considering a broadband proposal under the ARRA. The federal government is encouraging communities to collaborate on such proposals and it will benefit New Mexico to ensure that all plans are part of the State's long-range plan (NM-ISBI). Interested entities should click on the link below, provide the information requested, and email the information to Richard Lowenberg at Design Nine. Should you have any questions about the form/survey, the State's approach or questions in general, please call Richard at 505-603-5200.

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act is an unprecedented effort to jumpstart our economy, create and save jobs, and put a down payment on addressing long-neglected challenges so our country can thrive in the 21st century.

With much at stake, the Recovery Act provides for transparency and accountability so that citizens will be able to know how, when, and where their tax dollars are being spent.
