  A bill to improve telecommunications in border communities has cleared its first legislative hurdle. SB 51 would set aside $3 million to build cell and radio towers in Luna, Hidalgo, and Doña Ana counties.

The article discusses a legislative initiative in New Mexico aimed at enhancing telecommunications infrastructure along the state's southern border with Mexico. The bill, introduced by state Representative Jenifer Jones, seeks to address the lack of reliable cell service in the area, which has been a significant issue for both residents and emergency services. This lack of connectivity has notably hindered communication during critical situations, such as the search for a missing person in the desert. The proposed legislation would allocate funds to improve cell service, thereby enhancing safety, emergency response capabilities, and overall quality of life for those living near the border. The bill has garnered support from local officials and community members who see it as vital for both security and economic development in the region.
