Month: February 2026

February 11, 2026. As the Trump administration moves to rescind the EPA’s Endangerment Finding, NM lawmakers face an urgent decision of their own. With federal climate protections being dismantled, the Clear Horizons Act (SB18) represents the state’s best opportunity to ensure long-term planning, protect families from rising costs driven by extreme weather and harmful pollution, and hold major polluters accountable here at home. SB18 will be heard on the Senate floor today.

On February 7, the Senate Tax, Business and Transportation Committee advanced the Clear Horizons Act (SB 18) on a 6-4 vote, moving New Mexico closer to a long-term planning framework that provides certainty for businesses, protects family budgets, and supports stable economic growth across the state.
