    E&E News Biden taps N.M. Rep. Deb Haaland for Interior secretary Michael Doyle, E&E News reporter Published: December 17, 2020 at 2:53 PM Rep. Deb Haaland (D-N.M.) on Capitol Hill in June. Francis Chung/E&E News President-elect Joe Biden will nominate New Mexico Rep. Deb Haaland (D) to serve as Interior secretary, three sources tell E&E News. If confirmed by the Senate, the 60-year-old avowedly progressive lawmaker will be the first Native American to head the sprawling department whose responsibilities range from tribal affairs to the management of some 500 million acres of public land. A member of the Laguna Pueblo tribe, Haaland has posted a green record during her single House term representing an Albuquerque-based congressional district. She was comfortably reelected last month 58% to 42%. Several congressional Democrats, including House Natural Resources Chairman Raúl Grijalva of Arizona, openly advocated for Biden to nominate Haaland (E&E Daily, Nov. 20). Chairwoman of the Subcommittee on National Parks, Forests and Public Lands, Haaland served on Biden's climate engagement advisory council and is a co-sponsor of the Green New Deal and related aspirational legislation. 1 Her "Environmental Justice Legacy Pollution Cleanup Act," H.R. 8271, introduced in September, would provide $100 billion to clean up legacy pollution and would prohibit granting major source air pollution permits in communities already suffering from air pollution (E&E Daily, Sept. 18). "In my own Pueblo of Laguna, I know families who have to haul water because theirs is contaminated," Haaland said at the time, adding the bill would "stop polluters from taking advantage of communities of color and areas living in poverty." She is an original co-sponsor of the "American Public Lands and Waters Climate Solution Act," H.R.

  • Response to 2004 GAO Report (2008)
    SUSANA MARTINEZ GOVERNOR SAMUEL L. OJINAGA ACTING DIRECTOR RICHARD E. MAY CABINET SECRETARY STATE OF NEW MEXICO DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE AND ADMINISTRATION LOCAL GOVERNMENT DIVISION Bataan Memorial Building, Suite 201 ♦ Santa Fe, New Mexico 87501 (505) 827-4950 ♦ FAX No. (505) 827-4948 The New Mexico Land Grant Council has printed this document, prepared by David Benavídez and Ryan Golten for the New Mexico Attorney General in August 2008, because it considers it to be one of the most important documents on the legal history and contemporary issues faced by community land grants. It is a response to another document, a report prepared by the U.S. General Accountability Office (GAO) in June 2004, which has received far greater circulation. As stated in the GAO’s letter to Senators Jeff Bingaman and Pete V. Domenici, and to then Congressman Tom Udall, the report was prepared at congressional request and sought to describe the confirmation procedures by which the United States implemented the property protection provisions of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo with respect to New Mexico community land grants, and to assess the results of those procedures. It also identified and responded to concerns regarding those procedures, as implemented between 1854 and 1904, and identified options Congress could consider in responding to the remaining concerns among community land grant heirs. The GAO report concluded that the procedures employed to confirm community land grant claims between 1854 and 1904 did not violate due process. Also, the GAO purposely did not express an opinion on whether the United States fulfilled its Treaty obligations as a matter of international law.

  • Letter to the Honorable Tom Udall, Et
    April 21, 2020 The Honorable Tom Udall United States Senate Washington, DC 20510 Dear Senator Udall: On behalf of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), I am responding to your March 20, 2020, letter requesting that the NRC delay any public meetings and extend the public comment period on the draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for Holtec International’s proposed consolidated interim storage facility in Southeast New Mexico until the COVID-19 pandemic threat has passed. You also asked that public meetings, once resumed, be held at locations across New Mexico. The current 60-day comment period on the draft EIS was scheduled to close on May 22, 2020. Given recent events associated with the COVID-19 public health emergency, and the corresponding actions taken by Federal and State governments to mitigate its spread, the NRC staff will extend the public comment period for an additional 60 days. A notice of this extension will be published in the Federal Register. The NRC staff plans to hold a nationwide webinar and five public meetings in New Mexico during the public comment period to present the staff’s preliminary findings and receive public comments. As the COVID-19 public health emergency evolves, the NRC staff will continue to re-evaluate these plans for engaging the public, and will consider whether additional extensions to the comment period are warranted. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me or have your staff contact Eugene Dacus, Director of the Office of Congressional Affairs, at (301) 415-1776. Sincerely, Kristine L.

  • Obstruction of Justice
    Obstruction of Justice “You’re Hannah, right?” Hannah Morgan, a 20-year old from Appalachia, Virginia, was one of 11 protesters in handcuffs early Monday morning September 15 at the construction site for a coal-fired power plant being built in Wise County Virginia by Dominion Power. The handcuffs were applied by the police, but the questioner, it turns out, was from Dominion Power. “Mumble, mumble, mumble”, the discussion between police and the Dominion man were too far away to be heard by the young people. But it almost seemed that the police were working for Dominion. Maybe that’s the way it works in a company town. Or should we say company state? Virginia has got one of the most green-washed coal-blackened governors in the nation (http://www.columbia.edu/~jeh1/mailings/20080529_DearGovernorGreenwash.pdf). It seems Hannah had been pegged by Dominion as a “ringleader”. She had participated for two years in public meetings and demonstrations against the plan for mountaintop removal, strip mining and coal burning, and she had rejected their attempts to either intimidate or bargain. “Bargain?” What bargain is possible when Dominion is guaranteed 14% return on their costs, whether the coal plant’s power is needed or not. Utility customers have to cough this up, and they aren’t given any choice. The meetings and demonstrations were peaceful. Forty-five thousand signatures against the plant were collected. But money seems to talk louder. Dominion’s “mumble, mumble” must have been convincing. Hannah and Kate Rooth were charged with 10 more crimes than the other 10 defendants.

Description This course will focus on the organization and operations of Congress, the American government and the electorate during a period in which four historic forces are colliding simultaneously: the coronavirus pandemic and related societal disruptions; the widespread political/social responses to multiple incidents that document systemic racism affecting policing and other public policies; the electoral season; and lastly, the sharply divided public attitudes reflected in the hyper-partisan atmosphere of US politics and society more broadly.. Congress and other branches of the U.S. government were designed nearly two and a half centuries ago under circumstances and reflecting values and philosophies that bear little relationship to contemporary America.
