DESIGNATE HIGHWAY MEMORIAL CORRIDORS

SJM 3 requests the New Mexico Department of Transportation and Public Safety to create a program designating specific highway segments as memorial corridors honoring state police officers killed in the line of duty. The first designation would honor Officer Darian Jarrott on Interstate 10 in Luna County, with signs bearing the officer's name, rank, and the phrase "In honor of [rank] [full name], New Mexico State Police - Killed in the Line of Duty." The bill directs the departments to use available funds (including private donations) for sign installation and maintenance, and to maintain an online registry of fallen officers with their names, dates of death, and corresponding highway segments. This resolution is procedural and does not create new law, instead directing state agencies to implement the memorial program.
