 The New
Mexico Tax Research Institute is a nonprofit,
nonpartisan, member-supported organization dedicated to
providing fact based principled research and analysis
to the tax policy debate in New Mexico.
We do not advocate any agenda for or against taxation.
We seek only to study, inform and educate the public
and tax policy makers concerning the pressing issues of
taxation facing our state. We believe that well-versed
policymakers and an active, informed citizenry are
essential for effective representative government.
The New Mexico Tax Research
Institute is organized and operates as a
non-profit corporation and welcomes individuals,
businesses and organizations as members.
There are many reasons to belong to the New
Mexico Tax Research Institute. Two of the
principal reasons are succinctly stated in the
following two quotes, both from opinions delivered by
the Supreme Court of the United States.
"The power to tax involves the power to destroy" -
McCulloch v. Maryland, 17 U.S. 316 (1819), Chief
Justice John Marshall.
"Taxes are what we pay for civilized society” Campañía
General de Tabacos v. Collector, 275 U.S. 87, 100
