Rep. Christine Chandler deserves a celebration! After years of failed attempts, New Mexico finally has medical malpractice reform — and our own Los Alamos legislator led the charge. HB 99 passed the House 66-3, survived a bruising committee process, then passed the Senate 40-2. It’s now headed to the governor’s desk for her signature. The legislation will help recruit and retain doctors in a state facing a serious provider shortage. The Democratic Party of Los Alamos County invites you to raise a glass to Rep. Chandler at a ‘Cheers to Chris’ happy hour this Sunday, February 22, from 3 to 4 p.m. at Bathtub Row Brewery in Los Alamos. Toast at 3:30. All are welcome. Photo Courtesy DPLA
