Issue Position: Protecting the Environment

Issue Position

The natural beauty of New Mexico should not be taken for granted. Not only do our citizens rely on our public lands for recreation, but our state economy relies on them for tourism as well. I support keeping the Organ Mountain Desert Peaks as a national monument and believe in protecting the status of all national monuments.

Allowing the Trump administration to damage these resources for economic gain is not only a disservice to our citizens, who will lose access to these public lands, but a disservice to our environment as well.
