As I reported earlier this week, there was one bill 118, sponsored by Rep. Joe Campos, D-Santa Rosa, , which is the brainchild of Think New Mexico, the Santa Fe-based think tank. The second bill, HB 172, sponsored by Rep. Gail Chasey, D-Albuquerque is backed by Gov. Bill Richardson.
The committee substitute removed a provision from Chasey's bill that would have prohibited contributions from corporations and a section from Campos' bill that would have required nonprofit groups that get involved in political advocacy to disclose their contributors.

The vote was 6-4.
The bill goes on the House Judiciary Committee.
