To safeguard the lands, waters, and way of life in the Pecos from the dangers of future mining, the Forest Service must complete initial steps of the mineral withdrawal process. This is how we ensure that future generations can continue to benefit from this critical watershed.

I agree with AG Torrez: Time is running out. The U.S. Department of the Interior's "solution" that would require the City of Las Cruces to cut it's groundwater use by 93% is NOT a solution. sourcenm.com/2024/12/10/m...

Today, my legislation to help Good Samaritans clean up long-abandoned hardrock mines faces its final hurdle before it goes to the President's desk. I urge all of my colleagues in the House of Representatives to vote YES on this bipartisan, commonsense bill.

Climate action is WAY cheaper than climate inaction. Democrats have made solid progress, but more is needed. And the longer we delay, the more expensive and catastrophic the consequences will be for future generations.

If the Department of the Interior gets its way, Las Cruces won’t have the water it needs to function, and neither will Ag producers. We need the Biden administration to step in to resolve the TX v. NM case without catastrophic damage. www.abqjournal.com/news/article...
Mediation over Rio Grande water allocations set to begin Tuesday
Ahead of mediation over Rio Grande water use, New Mexico’s Attorney General is concerned the federal government will support stricter limits on groundwater pumping, which could inhibit the growth of s...

These guys literally want to take us back in time. Apparently making your neighborhood breathe dirty air is “great”, but American manufacturing jobs making EVs are “woke.” www.reuters.com/business/aut...
Exclusive: Trump may cancel US Postal Service electric mail truck contract, sources say
Donald Trump's transition team is considering canceling the United States Postal Service's contracts to electrify its delivery fleet, as part of a broader suite of executive orders targeting electric vehicles, according to three sources familiar with the plans.

Apprenticeships are good for workers, businesses, and local economies. That's why I led bipartisan legislation to support apprentice and pre-apprentice programs like Sophia’s at SMART Local 49.

The kids at Lincoln Elementary in Gallup, NM show up every day bright eyed and ready to learn – just like the students at all the 767 Title I schools in our state. Republicans’ Department of Education plans to slash funding for these schools slam a door in our kids’ faces.

The only thing that New Mexicans battling chronic kidney disease should have to worry about is getting better. That’s why I’ve introduced legislation to protect those with kidney failure from being kicked off of their health care when they need it most. www.santafenewmexican.com/opinion/my_v...
Congress must deliver for people with kidney failure
For those in New Mexico battling chronic kidney disease, a brand-new treatment facility in Albuquerque has become a beacon of hope.

Casting politics in terms of good and evil is dangerous and destructive. The "federal government" is your Social Security, it's your uncle's VA cancer treatment, it's the national park where your kids spent their vacation. We're better than this, America. subscriber.politicopro.com/article/eene...
E&E News: What’s with the online bromance between Elon Musk and Mike Lee?
The Tesla CEO and incoming Senate Energy and Natural Resources chair are bonding on X over efforts to overhaul an “evil” federal government.

Republicans’ economic plan: 1. Use tariffs to hike up prices on food, appliances, and other everyday goods. 2. Give tax handouts to the super rich. 3. Cut health care and nutrition programs Americans rely on. Sounds great for their wealthy donors... & terrible for working families.

Great to meet with folks from Protect Our Winters to highlight the progress we've made to protect our precious public lands and discuss the work ahead to tackle climate change and deliver a brighter future for the next generation.

CONFIRMED! Sarah Davenport has built an impressive legal career in New Mexico and has strong roots in her home community of Las Cruces. Proud to have secured her confirmation and look forward to her taking the bench in the District of New Mexico.

Tariffs won’t “bring back” American manufacturing—the investments Democrats have made in the last few years are already doing that. These tariffs are no more than a tax on hardworking families. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-t...
Here's why Trump thinks tariffs are good for the U.S. — and what the experts say
President-elect Donald Trump is proposing sweeping new tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China as soon as he takes office. Here's why.

New Mexicans rely on USPS to receive everything from paychecks to prescription medicine. I’m cosponsoring legislation that would require USPS to think twice before closing or downsizing rural mail processing facilities.
