A New Mexico state lawmaker wants the state to contribute $1.5 million to help finish the Bosque Redondo Memorial to recognize the forced relocation of Navajos and Apaches in the 1860s.

Congress approved $2 million for a memorial but it is expected to cost $4.5 million. If the state does not match the federal funds, it will lose them by October 2003.
