Albuquerque Mayor Talks Crime, Homelessness, Economy

Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller recently delivered his ‘State of the City’ address, calling it ‘A Future Worth Fighting For.’ What does he mean by that, exactly? This week, Mayor Keller joins Gabby and Chris for an in-depth discussion about crime, homelessness, the economy, and more. Keller says the metro’s biggest problem leads back to Fentanyl. He also admits the city’s housing voucher program isn’t working and needs an overhaul. Plus with construction timelines getting pushed back, will Keller be around for a third term? What should the city be focusing on the most?
