Around the Roundhouse

State Rep. Matthew McQueen on his decision to run for New Mexico state land commissioner


Listen Later

State Rep. Matthew McQueen has served six terms in the Legislature and he now has his sights set on statewide office. The Galisteo Democrat has thrown his hat in the ring for state land commissioner and is one of three candidates looking to replace Stephanie Garcia Richard, who is term-limited and running for lieutenant governor. 

McQueen, who announced his candidacy for state land commissioner this week, spoke with Santa Fe New Mexican senior politics reporter Daniel J. Chacón for the latest episode of “Around the Roundhouse” to discuss his decision to run. 

McQueen discusses his law background and the experience he has in land issues that he says sets him apart from the other candidates. He also talks about the role of the State Land Office and how he feels Garcia Richard has performed during her time in office. 

Chacón asks McQueen about initiatives he would focus on if he were to be elected. He also asks McQueen about his legislation to end pocket vetoes by governors.
