We will only reach the promise of America and its ideals by learning from our past, not destroying it. This is unacceptable.

Costs are rising and instead of addressing our energy affordability crisis, this administration is making it worse —blocking cheaper electrons from getting onto the grid and where they are needed most.

Across New Mexico and the country, people are looking at their bills and asking how they are going to find the money to keep their lights on. The answer is that Americans need more affordable energy - which requires more electrons on the grid, not less - and they need it now.

Outdoor recreation on public lands generates $128 BILLION in economic activity every year. That's $351 million a day, or $14.6 million every hour.

If Trump wants to lower Americans’ electric bills, then his administration should stop cancelling fully permitted energy projects that would put more electrons on the grid and power millions of homes and businesses.

Another victory for cheap, clean energy and more importantly, the rule of law.

New Mexico is proof that when we invest in clean energy, we get more power on our grid and lower costs for consumers.

Congress needs to understand that the American people value their public lands.

Today marks 25 years of the Roadless Rule. It’s an extremely popular conservation measure that protects many of your favorite hunting spots, hiking trails, biking routes, and fishing streams across the country. But now the Trump administration wants to repeal it.

People across the West cherish our public lands. For 25 years, the Roadless Rule has protected millions of acres of our forests. In the face of Trump’s efforts to repeal this rule and sell our public lands, we’ll always keep fighting to protect these lands for future generations.

Trump is creating a hotter and less affordable future for Americans.

Trump promised to cut your energy bills in half. Instead they've gone up 13% since he took office. He is single-handedly making this crisis worse.

Until there’s more electricity being generated to meet demand, your energy bill will stay high. The fastest way to meet demand is with clean energy, but Trump is killing clean energy projects and all the jobs that come with them.

Trump’s assault on clean energy sinks permitting reform. There is no path to a bill if this administration refuses to follow the law. Trump will own higher electricity prices, aging infrastructure, & loss of U.S. competitiveness. @whitehouse.senate.gov & @heinrich.senate.gov's statement:

Sen. Heinrich: The Continental Divide Trail is part of the Triple Crown of Hiking and brings visitors from around the world to climb the spine of the North American continent. For many New Mexicans, it's their local trail where they walk their dog or spend time with their families.

The Trump energy crisis is self-inflicted. The projects canceled or delayed since Trump’s election would have produced enough electricity to power over 13 million homes. Now, factories are closing, utility costs are skyrocketing, and 165,000+ jobs are lost.

"If national Republicans continue to make public lands a target of budget cuts, without understanding the unique politics of them in Western states like Montana, some suggest the party will likely have to face the wrath of these voters."

There's a real crisis out there, and people need to know that their public lands are at risk.

Sen. Heinrich: The public lands recreation economy contributes over $350 million a day–a testament to how deeply Americans value time outdoors and their history. Unfortunately, directives from this administration are a threat to the parks that Americans know and love. youtube.com/shorts/7EwMO...

Sen. Heinrich: Do you know what sportsmen in New Mexico call the roadless areas that are protected in our state? They call it elk habitat.

Senator Gallego's energy strategy is rooted in what's most important for working families: affordability, reliability, and innovation.

There is no better idea than the National Park Service, and it should be the premier park agency in the world. I’ll keep fighting to protect the parks and the people who take care of them.

Trump denied disaster aid to rebuild power lines in rural Michigan after a devastating ice storm. Now, residents could end up picking up the tab...to the tune of at least $4,500 per household.

200+ clean energy jobs folks can build their families around. Cutting-edge innovation. Keeping New Mexico competitive. Kairos is an example of workers in our state leading the way as we grow good-paying jobs and strengthen our clean energy leadership.

For decades, Republicans have been slow walking progress on clean energy. That isn’t free. Home insurance premiums are through the roof because of their inaction.

The revenue generated by public lands is comparable to hosting 8 Super Bowls per month. They’re more than just places to recreate–they boost our national and local economies and support almost a million jobs. Cutting resources hurts more than recreationists, it hurts communities.

We are at a crisis point for our national refuges. DOGE cuts have threatened our ability to take care of them and manage them effectively.

No real consultation. A one-week comment period. And now Trump is rushing to lift Western Arctic protections — railroading Tribes, ignoring community input, skipping NEPA reviews, and putting wealthy interests over everyday Americans.

Our National Parks are our “crown jewels.” Just one expert was plugging abandoned mines that leak methane and oil into these lands — until this administration let him go. Their reckless cuts endanger Americans and create a new public health crisis.

Steven Concho: These places, people refer to them as ruins, or abandoned, but they’re not. We still go to these places. They’re living places that still hold meaning to the Pueblo people...Protecting all these places keeps our tradition alive.

Sen. Hickenlooper: Can you speak to the impact that these staffing cuts have made, especially on energy projects? Dr. Chris Merritt: The more federal agencies don’t do their job because of staffing, the more it falls to us.

Our public lands are at risk and we’ve never been closer to losing them than we are right now. We won’t let that happen.

Dr. Chris Merritt: I cannot imagine a world where the lack of federal employees is not going to hurt permitting.

Sen. Heinrich: Our kids and our grandkids deserve to know where they come from. And we can't tell the story of our nation without protecting the places that literally tell those stories.

@whitehouse.senate.gov, @heinrich.senate.gov, and @peters.senate.gov are demanding answers ⤵️ www.epw.senate.gov/public/index...

Trump's privately funded ballroom is classic pay-to-play corruption. The public deserves to know exactly who is funding Trump’s vanity project—and what he has promised them in return.

Families across the country are bracing for cold weather and skyrocketing electric bills. We need more clean, affordable, American-made energy now. Trump’s continuous attacks on American clean energy projects mean one thing: working people will pay for his reckless policies.

Due to Trump’s shutdown, 80% of the NNSA has been furloughed. These are the people who oversee our nuclear stockpile–and Trump already fired many of them earlier this year. We need steady leadership that keeps national security professionals on the job and our country safe.

While Donald Trump is busy spending $250 million of taxpayer money on a new White House ballroom, our rural gateway communities are struggling and our national parks are less safe.

In just a few months Donald Trump's war on affordable, American-made energy has killed thousands of jobs, leaving working families without incomes and exacerbating our energy affordability crisis. The latest example ⤵️

NEWS: Throughout the 10th Circuit, including in NM, corner crossing remains legal across parcels of public land that touch corner to corner, making thousands of acres of your public land legally accessible — just make sure you step public to public land, and never damage any private property.

The folks who maintain our nuclear weapons stockpile? 80% are being furloughed because of Trump’s shutdown. Meanwhile, Trump keeps spending on his fancy new $200 million ballroom… and House Republicans can’t even shown up to work.

We are falling behind other countries and losing manufacturing jobs because Trump is doubling down on fossil fuels and attacking clean, American-made energy. That hurts our economy, hurts our energy supply, and hurts you where it matters most—your pockets.

Now more than ever we need more energy, not less, to power our grid. Trump’s solution? Kill hundreds of energy projects across the country, skyrocketing costs and losing our competitive edge.

"Renewable energy isn’t being done by countries because they are woke. That is a stupid statement. It is being done because it is economic."

Trump is waging a war on American-made energy— willing to skyrocket your energy bills and kill jobs to enrich his billionaire friends.

At a time when energy demand is going up astronomically, the Trump Administration is making your electricity bill more expensive.

Nakedly political and unlawful. These projects would have created jobs and lowered costs.

This year, a broad coalition of Americans defeated Donald Trump and Mike Lee’s effort to sell off our public lands. On National Public Lands Day, get out and enjoy these treasures you fought so hard to protect. And let's make sure public lands always stay in public hands.

Because the law is the law.
