Tourism Commission Members

The “tourism commission” was created as a planning commission administratively attached to the New Mexico Tourism Department. The commission provides advice to the department on policy matters. Commissioners are responsible for the annual approval and update of the state’s five-year tourism plan. The commision consists of seven appointed members from each of the three congressional districts including one member that is appointed from the state at large.
