Denish Offers Solutions; GOP Only Attacks

Albuquerque, N.M. -- Yesterday, Lt. Governor Diane Denish outlined her ideas to make New Mexico's government leaner and more efficient. Meanwhile, on the same day, her Republican opponents continued their onslaught of baseless character attacks.

Lt. Gov. Denish's innovative proposals offered smart reform ideas that, if implemented, would save the state millions of dollars.

“A recurring theme is starting in this campaign. Lt. Governor Denish offers a substantive idea, and the Republican candidates offer nothing but baseless character attacks. Just yesterday, Lt. Gov. Denish put forward some smart ideas to make government leaner and more efficient,” said Josh Geise, executive director of the Democratic Party of New Mexico. “But instead of putting forward any thoughtful solutions of their own, the Republican candidates threw mud. We have yet to hear a single idea from a Republican candidate on how the state should address the budget shortfall created by this national economic crisis. New Mexicans deserve an honest campaign on the issues and will reject the politics of character assassination.”

Lt. Gov. Denish’s reform package called for overhauling the capital outlay process, ending the practice of “double-dipping," and improving technology systems.
