Lawmakers closed the meeting to the public, citing the discussion of “personnel matters.”
A complaint against Gudgel triggered an investigation last year, although it isn’t clear whether any allegations against her were substantiated. The Legislative Council Service denied a public records request by the Journal for the investigator’s report.
Most members of the Legislative Education Study Committee declined to comment after Tuesday’s meeting.
In a brief interview, Sen. William Soules, a Las Cruces Democrat and chairman of the committee, said he expects the panel to schedule another meeting on the matter.
“There’s lots of repair that needs to be done,” Soules said.

New Mexico is working to combat student learning losses during the pandemic. Officials are overseeing the allocation of 1.5 billion dollars in special funding to address COVID impacts.
Members of the New Mexico Legislative Finance Committee say more needs to be done to address pandemic related learning losses. At a recent meeting, Representative Javier Martínez called on the legislature to find creative ways to reengage lost students.
“I m concerned because I don t know that laptops or Twittering or sending the screen is going to re-engage any of those middle school to high school students,” Martínez said. “And I m scared. If you look at the crime rate across the state, if you look at Albuquerque, those are 15–16-year-olds that are out of the system, right, completely out. I m not sure we re going to get them back with laptops and an extended school year.”
