Environment New Mexico

Chaco Canyon is sacred ground. When President Biden protected the Greater Chaco Landscape, it was a historic step that honored tribal voices and safeguarded thousands of irreplaceable cultural sites. Efforts now underway to roll back protections threaten irreplaceable history. We must continue protecting #ChacoCanyon and stand with tribal leaders calling for its preservation.

Proud to see Albuquerque at #15 in the nation for public access to parks and open spaces, from @tpl_org. The Land and Water Conservation Fund played a major role in getting us here, and our Great American Outdoors Act fully, permanently funds it. tpl.org/city/albuquerq…
