KRQE
By Katie Kim

NEW MEXICO---A New Mexico village mayor is accusing the federal government of censorship in a big battle over artwork the village wants to put on two bridges the feds are paying for. The artwork is religious, and according to Mayor Edmond Temple of Jemez Springs and a state transportation employee, the federal government ordered to remove the crosses. The Federal Highway Administration is picking up about 85 percent of the $2 million construction, which is set to start next spring. The artist who won the contest is working on another version of the sculpture without crosses. [link]
