SANTA ROSA, N.M. - Next week, Senator Tom Udall will be in Santa Rosa, Fort Sumner, Española, Silver City, Las Cruces and Santa Teresa to discuss economic development, education, helmet safety and border trade issues.
On Monday, Udall will be in Santa Rosa to tour the Ilfeld Warehouse, the site of the future Route 66 Museum in New Mexico, and get an update from City Councilors and Guadalupe County Commissioners on ongoing economic development efforts. Next, he will visit the Santa Rosa High School to conduct a Q&A with upperclass students.
On Tuesday, Udall will meet with DBA Consulting, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) that provides independent testing and assessment for new technologies and equipment for federal agencies like the Department of Defense and the State Department.
Then, Udall will tour the Fort Sumner Processing, a custom slaughter and meat processing plant. In 2011, its owners were recognized as "Clients of the Year" by the Small Business Development Center at Clovis Community College.
