The resolution establishes a special committee within the New Mexico House of Representatives to investigate allegations of criminal activity and public corruption related to Zorro Ranch, a private estate in Santa Fe County. This committee will consist of four members—two from the majority party and two from the minority party—and will be tasked with determining whether legislative action is necessary to enhance public safety, protect vulnerable individuals, ensure proper use of public resources, and maintain public accountability. The committee is empowered to conduct hearings, compel witness attendance, administer oaths, and issue subpoenas, with the authority to operate even after the legislature adjourns, but not beyond December 31, 2026.

The resolution emphasizes the importance of legislative inquiry as a means to uphold public confidence in state government and address the serious concerns surrounding Zorro Ranch that have persisted since 2019. The committee is required to keep detailed records of its activities and submit an interim report by July 31, 2026, along with a final report by December 31, 2026, outlining its investigative procedures, findings, and recommendations. Additionally, the resolution mandates that the necessary staff support be provided for the committee's operations during and after legislative sessions.
