How PFML Will Damage Your Business

PFML not only imposes the largest tax increase in New Mexico history on your business, but businesses will also be forced to manage:

• Recruiting, training, and managing temporary employees.
• Adjusting the schedule for employees taking multi-week leave.
• Contesting employee abuses of PFML.
• Complying with a whole new set of rules with the Workforce Solutions Department.
• You will pay unemployment on the replacement person when they leave.

How PFML Will Harm Our Economy

More taxes means less money in the pockets of New Mexican families and businesses. This means:

• Less spending money.
• Higher cost of living.
• Less opportunity.
• Businesses shutting down.
• Good jobs moving to nearby states like Texas and Arizona.

How PFML Will Hurt Rural New Mexico

Rural New Mexicans will be hurt the most. Due to the bad policies from Santa Fe, rural businesses and ranches already struggle to keep their doors open. PFML would be the largest tax increase in New Mexico history. This means:

• Less money in your pocket.
• Higher costs of living.
• Even less good paying jobs.
• Small town businesses and stores shutting down.
• Children and families moving away to seek new opportunities.
