🚨 US. Senate confirms former Representative and RPNM Chairman, Steve Pearce, to lead the Bureau of Land Management.

Chairwoman Amy Barela releases the following statement:

[New Mexico House Republicans @NMHouseGOP]

For every $1 increase in oil prices, the state gains roughly $59 million in revenue. If the state benefits from higher gas prices, should New Mexicans receive a gas dividend or rebate back?

Absolutely. Isn’t that a common for our Governor when she can’t pass legislation?

Are NM's Courts/MLG attempting an EV "end-run" around a federal law (supported by @RepGabeVasquez) that eliminated the ability of California and states like NM from enacting their own EV mandates:

@BrianEgolf Brian day one Valero raises fuel prices 21 cents a gallon because of Clean Fuel Standards that you said would not cost a penny. Remember?

[Jim Townsend @Sen34townsend]

Good afternoon Jim, I thought you might be interested to see Valero‘s posting starting today of the new low carbon fuel standard fees. NMED said there would be no price increase for this new fuel standard effective the first day it’s $.21a gallon increase.

This is the Bill that Democrats said would not raise fuel prices. We argued it would. Here’s the proof

[Jim Townsend @Sen34townsend]

Fuel Prices will rise today as the democrats Clean Fuel Program begins today, April 1, 2026. As prices rise, and they will, please don’t forget to thank a democrat for raising gasoline and diesel prices.

[Jim Townsend @Sen34townsend]

@BrianEgolf Oh you @BrianEgolf have short memory. Clean fuels pricing has not yet gone in effect or the prices would be even higher. Your ETA was going to save the world from high prices yet they are up 50%. Try again.

[Paul Gessing @pgessing]

LOL! Always good to see New Mexicans stand up to MLG and the left's overreach. They are all too willing to get rid of 1,000 jobs with no replacement strategy.

If you questioned anything he did, you were immediately labeled a racist—and that’s still true.
