The amendment to Bill SM 52 includes additional lines that emphasize the significance of the national speech and debate tournament happening in Albuquerque from June 14-19, 2020. It highlights details such as the estimated economic impact of $11 million, the participation of ten thousand students and volunteers, and the first-ever national Spanish language competition.
