Attorney General Of New Mexico

The Attorney General of New Mexico, operating through its Financial Control Division, is a U.S. state government entity registered with SAM.gov since December 2005. The organization serves as the primary law enforcement and legal authority for the state, providing a range of investigative, prosecutorial, and victim support services through federal grant funding. The agency is designated to oversee and administer various federal grant programs that enhance public safety, protect vulnerable populations, and strengthen the integrity of federal programs such as Medicaid.

The Attorney General of New Mexico has demonstrated sustained expertise in managing federal grant awards across multiple criminal justice and fraud prevention initiatives. The organization has been a consistent recipient of formula grants from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services under the State Medicaid Fraud Control Units program (CFDA 93.775), receiving approximately $905,941 for the current fiscal year (October 1, 2025 to September 30, 2026) to investigate and prosecute Medicaid provider fraud and patient abuse or neglect in health facilities and board and care settings. Additionally, the agency operates the New Mexico Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force through a cooperative agreement with the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, working to prevent, investigate, and prosecute technology-facilitated child exploitation while building collaborative partnerships with federal, state, tribal, military, and local law enforcement. The organization also received a $1.15 million project grant from the Bureau of Justice Assistance to expand crime gun intelligence capabilities through deployment of IBIS BrassTRAX workstations across New Mexico. Sub-grant awards have been distributed through the New Mexico Department of Transportation and Crime Victims Reparation Commission, funding traffic safety resource prosecutors, administrative license revocation prosecution support, DWI training initiatives, and dedicated victim advocates supporting human trafficking and ICAC victims, thereby establishing the Attorney General's Office as a comprehensive provider of law enforcement and victim services across the state.
