The Calf Canyon/Hermit’s Peak Fire has burned an area bigger than New York City. Unprecedented windy conditions from the West’s driest decades in 1,200 years are to blame. This is exactly the devastating weather climate scientists have been warning us about for decades. — PolitiTweet.org

The climate crisis is permanently changing the severity of our fire season in New Mexico. We need to change with it. https://t.co/Y34RwEfKTp — PolitiTweet.org

It's been years now since my boys were infants, but I remember what it’s like to worry about making sure they are healthy and fed. I’m proud to be a cosponsor of the Access to Baby Formula Act and glad to see it heading to President Biden’s desk to bring NM families some relief. — PolitiTweet.org

Even with these historic winds, containment on the Cerro Pelado Fire has gone up to 74%. That's a massive accomplishment, and a real testament to how hard the firefighters have been working. So grateful to everyone on the front lines of all these fires. — PolitiTweet.org

This bipartisan agreement is a renewed commitment to our veterans. All those living with chronic conditions from their exposure to toxins during their time in uniform deserve proper health care and benefits. Let’s get this on President Biden’s desk ASAP. https://t.co/fUeuvag2un — PolitiTweet.org

I joined my colleagues in a letter to President Biden urging him to appoint a national coordinator for the infant formula shortage. We need a clear plan and all hands on deck to address this crisis. The President’s use of the Defense Production Act is a welcome part of this. — PolitiTweet.org

Happy Birthday to @NatlHeadStart! For 57 years these programs have lifted up generations of children and families. It's long past time we put our NM Permanent Fund to work for early childhood education programs like these. Investing in American families will always pay off. https://t.co/QJEBr7gTDA — PolitiTweet.org

We have to get federal agencies back to in-person operations. Many are still without broadband & need to be able to visit federal offices in person. We can’t let New Mexicans—especially seniors & veterans—struggle to access Social Security, Medicare, or other essential benefits. https://t.co/IUve0qfE69 — PolitiTweet.org

We’re in the middle of the the driest decade in 1,200 years in the West. Climate change is the reason our fire season started so early and why it is so devastating. https://t.co/eXZTQKR3ao — PolitiTweet.org

We absolutely need to take precautions to prevent wildfires, but blanket closures of our public lands are not the answer. We need a nuanced approach that distinguishes between hiking on a trail versus lighting a campfire. We can balance safety & access with a little common sense. — PolitiTweet.org

What happened in Buffalo didn’t happen in a vacuum. Words lead predictably to action. White nationalist rhetoric and anti-immigrant sentiment is commonplace among too many Republican “leaders.” — PolitiTweet.org

Martin Heinrich @MartinHeinrich

Climate change has created these unprecedented dry & windy conditions. It’s time Republicans wake up to the severity of this threat & work with us to act. I’m sick & tired of watching New Mexicans pay the price while they turn a blind eye to the devastating changes all around us. — PolitiTweet.org

I've never witnessed wildfires as early in the season or as extreme as the ones we're seeing. Thousands have evacuated from homes, farms, & ranches that have been in their families for generations. Hundreds of thousands of acres of our state have burned. 📸Dan Stucki @SantafeNF https://t.co/koo7h2XRI2 — PolitiTweet.org

If the Department of Commerce’s trade probe gets dragged on for months or years, it could crush small solar businesses, leave their employees out of work, and severely damage our national clean energy goals. This has to end. https://t.co/bcI4CW5p3E — PolitiTweet.org

Martin Heinrich @MartinHeinrich

It’s past destabilizing at this point. If the Department of Commerce’s investigation continues we run the risk of destroying an entire industry. This is putting workers, businesses, and our climate goals in jeopardy. https://t.co/Va98duifh3 — PolitiTweet.org
