This is the official nmlegis action history. I'm doing my best to translate the LONG/WEIRD-STRING to something less gibberishy. And before you ask, no, the "Legis Day" number has no mapping to the real world.
Actions: [8] SRC/SFC-SRC

This table shows bill actions detected on Ed's system, using heuristics that may not be 100% accurate and which may not reflect the "official" nmlegis chronology. It is probably more than you care to know.

A district shall collaborate with the secretary of state and the earth data analysis center at the university of New Mexico to generate a geographic information system map for that district.
C. By March 1, 2027, and in each year ending in two following the federal decennial census thereafter, a district shall provide that geographic information system map pursuant to Subsection B of this section to the secretary of state and to the county commissioners of every county within the district."
