Summary — NM 305

Title: Sr. Carlos Javier Tavárez Santiago como Miembro Asociado de la Junta de Libertad Bajo Palabra
Classification: Appointment
Status: Notificado a la Gobernadora
Introduced: October 1, 2025

Purpose

NM 305 is an appointment measure that proposes the placement of Sr. Carlos Javier Tavárez Santiago as an Associate Member of the Board of Parole (Junta de Libertad Bajo Palabra). The measure’s intent is to fill or add an associate seat on the parole board so that the board can carry out its statutory responsibilities.

Key provisions

  • Officially nominates Sr. Carlos Javier Tavárez Santiago for the position of Associate Member of the Board of Parole.
  • Seeks legislative confirmation of the nominee (action taken by the Senate).
  • The text available does not specify term length, salary, start date, statutory duties beyond those already vested in the Board of Parole, or any changes to the board’s structure—only the appointment/confirmation process is reflected.

Procedural history / timeline

  • 2025-10-01 — Nomination submitted and referred to committee(s).
  • 2025-10-27 — Committee issued a favorable first report recommending confirmation.
  • 2025-10-27 — Referred to the Senate Rules and Calendar Committee.
  • 2025-10-27 — Placed on the Senate Special Orders calendar.
  • 2025-10-27 — Confirmed by the Senate.
  • 2025-10-27 — Notification sent to the Governor (Notificado a la Gobernadora).

Who is affected

  • The Board of Parole: composition, voting/quorum dynamics, and internal decision‑making.
  • People under parole consideration and parolees whose cases the Board reviews.
  • Victims, community stakeholders, and corrections administrators who interact with the Board’s decisions.
  • No fiscal impacts, term limits, or statutory authority changes are specified in the available material.

Potential impact and notes

  • Adding or confirming an associate member may affect the board’s deliberations, ideological balance, and capacity to hear cases (quorum/rotation).
  • Because the bill is an appointment measure, its substantive legal effect is primarily personnel‑related rather than changing parole law or procedure.
  • The document provided does not include biographical details of the nominee, term length, or compensation. Final appointment effects (e.g., when the appointee assumes office) may depend on applicable statutes and the Governor’s subsequent action or acknowledgment after notification.

If you want, I can draft a brief background profile of the nominee (if public-source data exists) or check applicable statutes to clarify term, powers, and appointment procedure for this board.
