I agree with the above. The two offices that are supposed to maintain characteristics of trustworthiness, transparency and truth are lying and hiding.

New Mexico is a horribly corrupt state. Thanks King Bill.

I agree that information within private enterprises qualifies for proprietary exemption status, but there is never-ever a legitimate excuse for servants to hide behind a veil of secrecy, which can only breed dictatorial political corruption.

I constantly hear that the state contract bid/awards process need to be kept secret to protect the proprietary information of private businesses competing for public financed contracts (spaceport & grip-gate financing?), but this is an in-excusable sham.

Anything and everything within local, state and federal govt should be open to all and thus the people can accurately gauge whether or not their representatives are acting in a manner they were elected for.

Phil Sisneros, King’s spokesman, would not comment. Because today’s hearing was secret, he said, “we are prohibited from discussing in any way.”

I am curious, what law or logic makes all of this information secret?
