new mexico instituted new rules. even though we're not the number one oil and gas producer we have the worst methane plume in the united states. that does not bode well for anyone. now the rule changes will benefit quite a few jobs to stop the methane leaks and stop the venting and also getting more dollars to plug the abandoned oil and gas wells. those are job opportunities on the horizon coupled of manufacturing. i know we can get there. then only attract more opportunity to our state including those that are homegrown. host: you're entering the u.s. senate for the first time is one of the first hispanics in 40 years. but also going a historic moment we finally have six senators and u.s. senate or hispanic into your mexican-american have you had any conversation about your unique roles or what you plan to do is the first and largest hispanic caucus? have you have these discussions? >> i have chatted a few times with senator cruz and marco rubio i had more substantive conversations senator menendez and also senator

i love new mexico. not only is it my home where i raised my child, went to college, started a small business, and started organizing, it's my ancestral homeland. as the 35th generation new mexican, and not unlike the other families with roots in our state, i have a deep connection to the land, air, and water that sustains our communities. my ancestors settled there because they were drawn to the once mighty rio grande and the sacred places that dot the sandstone mesas and granite mountains. that's why i made the most of my time in congress. i spent every opportunity meeting with families, listening to small business owners, learning about our tech industry, connecting with brave service members and veterans, and working to deliver for the people. when i was a little girl, none of this crossed my mind as a possibility for me. i wasn't one of the students picked out to apply to college. in fact, i didn't apply to college until i was 28. i was constantly struggling to make ends meet and raise my child as a

might be from the indian lands in new mexico. you just -- went down a rabbit hole trying to find the guy. and the brilliance of the guy was he was able to construct this phony outfit, hire telemarketing companies to solicit millions of dollars a year, four or eight to ten million dollars a year from small donors, $25 a pop and everybody believed he was real. ultimately -- go ahead with your question. >> i was going to ask daniel, he stayed out of trouble. the champion debater. seemed to be nondescript in high school and college and goes to harvard, in a law practice. could you find an incident or cause to this kind of -- this breakdown when he crossed over to -- like frank abigail in catch me if you can. is something -- his mother -- i don't know if she died during this or what. >> honestly that is still partially one of the mysteries that still surrounds john codey, what made john run, why he as a lawyer with a few years of experience, working at a firm in sierra vista by tucson, along the mexican border, had a successful practi

maria: this is not the new mexico archives. dish -- this was at the new mexico archives. eric: i think we have time for a couple more questions. gerald is asking whether rural people were affected to the point of mass burials. maria: i have heard that there were burials at a cemetery. i don't know that we were able to document that, but it is probably more people who did not have people to bury them, or also this problem with contagion and not be able to have a proper burial with your full family at your funeral. i did not hear anything about mass burials, but probably indigenous people could have been affected in that way. eric: the last question, it has a nice note for you as well. how did southern colorado affair? he follows up with, we miss you here in colorado. maria: i miss you all. i think the camps -- colorado fared the same as pueblo and the other places. there was nothing that i saw that really stood out about the camps other than that they were also being treated by the cf&i hospitals and makeshift hospitals. that women were asked to come in and serve as nurses

it is for this reason that my colleague from new mexico, yvette herrell, introduced h.r. 471, the protecting americans from unnecessary spread upon entry from covid act of 2021, or the pause act. title 42 must remain in effect under her act until all state and federal lockdowns, curfews, all public and federal public health emergencies for covid-19 end and the c.d.c.'s covid travel or health risk level for canada and mexico is reduced to one. that's a good bill. we should continue to enforce title 42. there are 44 co-sponsors of this bill. only republicans. yesterday, i filed h.res. 216, which is a rule to discharge this bill. and when it ripens, which is another eight or so legislative days, we're going to be pushing to discharge that bill from committee and vote on it on the floor of the house of

we were at the edge of where new mexico, mexico and texas meet called monument three. sitting on a bluff asking the agents that are on the front lines. there is a big gap in the fence there because of the stop construction. but when i talked -- one of them was telling us what they were seeing coming across the border. they saw over 100 people come across in the last few days in that one sector. some of them on the list. i said list? he said the terror watch list. i was stunned. they said they see not just people from central and south america but people from yemen and places in the middle east

what is now in texas, new mexico and arizona, it's kind of a joke. 1845 texas is not a current texas, the texas now is very, very big. then when you look at new mexico, it is square and it had a little tail on it added hra later, and then you have -- >> do you know what i am talking about -- >> i'm getting there. >> okay. >> this is the sadness about it. here, this is the sadness about it. here you had a man that was able to speak to a whole range of people across -- if it's a big expanse now, if you think about there were war battles that went on after the war officially ended and there were battles in the new mexico territory, and the new mexico territory is not where it is now, and it's kind of a joke but it's not. texas and new mexico have a lot of overlap, and so there's this weird an tipathy between two states, and why did they become states in 1912, and there's a reason and it's not necessarily that -- they didn't want to join the nation. yeah. >> okay. michelle, i really appreciate you sharing some of your knowledge and your deep understanding of history, and we look forward t

i'm representative yvette herrell from new mexico, second congressional district. so the el paso sector where we just visited today serves the district that i represent. so i'm grateful for leader mccarthy and all of these colleagues of mine coming here to understand what we're facing. and i don't want to repeat everything they've said, but i do want to let you know that we have introduced a policy that is very effective for the border patrol. and they just told us repeatedly. title 42 is helping. but if this president takes that away, then it opens the flood gates even more so. this title 42 allows our border patrol agents to process on the border and expel those that are coming here illegally because we are under pandemic conditions. and i know there's not one of you in this crowd that hasn't been impacted by the covid-19. maybe you know somebody who passed away, somebody who's sick, somebody who is alone in the hospital, somebody who lost a job, closed a business, we've all been impacted by covid-19. and for our president to think opening the southern border to

the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady from new mexico is recognized for one minute. ms. herrell: thank you, madam speaker. i just rise in opposition to this and, madam speaker, i would say it is more disingenuous for this body to pretend to tell the american people that we're doing something good for their children when in fact more money in this bill is going to help one democratic district in california than it's going to help all of the covid relief efforts. we have got our priorities very wrong. our children are the future. and thank god that the senate took the $15 an hour minimum wage out of this because that was another nail in the coffin for our small business owners. but to sit here and think we're doing something special for our constituents, that's not really truthful. we're doing something special for speaker pelosi and a lot of others that want big bailouts for the democratic cities. we can do better. we can do better for our students, for our families because those are the people in the trenches. our future depends on it. our students depend on it. we need

announcer: on thursday, the senate energy and natural resources committee approved the nomination of new mexico representative deb haaland to be the next interior secretary by a vote of 11-9. here's the committee meeting. it is 20 minutes. >> let us now turn to representative deb haaland's to be secretary of interior. while i may not personally agree with her past statements and policy positions, she will be carrying out president biden's agenda. at her hearing, she confirmed she and the administration recognized our country will remain dependent on fossil fuels for years to come and then transition to obtain our energy future come through innovation, not illumination. she affirmed her commitment to bipartisanship, and need to work across the aisle to find the bipartisan solutions needed to address the diverse needs of our country. i was impressed by the strong endorsement she received by congressman don young, for whom i have the utmost respect and who has been in congress long enough to be able to read people and know their heart and soul. he testified on the productive working relationship h

in new mexico, our hearts broke over the devastating and deadly impact that this pandemic has on our native american communities. many of the tribal leaders and elders we have lost and the impacts on the latino communities. having access to health care should not depend on your zip code. it should depend on your employment. it should -- it shouldn't depend on your employment. it shouldn't depend on your income. it shouldn't depend on your race. the american rescue plan takes us one step closer to making health care as a right available for every american. thank you, madam speaker. ms. pelosi: as we observe the 11th anniversary that was a week tuesday, you can see the pride we had not only in that legislation but in the newer members of congress who have taken up the cause and made their mark on this. because they listened to their constituents. and prioritized this health issue. which is a health issue and an economic issue. for families. because of affordability. so thank you so much to congresswoman underwood for this specific language in this legislation. you talked about it when

remember that swampland in new mexico, this isn't a reopening plan. these are hostage demands. we have even seen virtual schools closed because of snow. does that make any sense? nonsensical. it is also sad because we lost sight of what truly matters, students. working with betsy devos, we lamented that our education system is prone to saying no instead of finding the will to get to yes, but most important he it is built around those who run it, not those it is supposed to serve, students. america's are being robbed of precious time they should spend in classrooms alongside their peers. studies show school closures lead to significant learning loss with students of color suffering the most, exacerbating the already existing achievement gap. republicans understand education as a gateway for students to achieve their greatest potential in society. at such a pivotal moment in this country, why would we allow the next generation of entrepreneurs, business owners, civic leaders and so many more to be left behind? proud conservatives in congress and state houses around the country re

congresswoman haaland is what we like to call in new mexico, a 35th generation new mexican. as many have noted, she'll make history as the first-ever native american cabinet secretary, frankly, something that should have happened a long, long time ago in this country. deb also has lived experience as a single mother, as a small business owner, as a tribal administrator. experiences that will serve her well and bring real representation to president joe biden's cabinet. she grew up in a military family. her father was a decorated marine combat veteran and her mother is a navy veteran. she grew up like a lot of kids with parents in the military, moving frequently, actually attending 13 different public schools over the course of her childhood. before being elected to congress, she owned her own business. she was the chair of the board of a tribally owned business and served as tribal administrator for the pueblo san philipe. thanks to all of that experience, congresswoman haaland knows first hand how the decisions we make here in washington and particularly the interior depart

deb haaland, she is from new mexico when she is a native american.oss the united states. she is a long—time campaigner for the rights of america's indigenous people. she is an environmental campaigner and her there has been a big campaign on her behalf by environmentalist to get her pointed to this role in the department of the interior. she did this with president biden on some policies. she does not support fracking. she does support the green new deal which includes some radical policies to tackle climate change and the reason her new important is that the department she will be in charge of controls and manages about one fifth of all the public land across the united states. if you look at the extraction and use of fossil fuels from those lands that results in about a quarter of the greenhouse gas emissions from the us. she is going to be in charge of a key department at a time when president biden is looking at environmental policies. she is in a position to have her say and that is exactly what her supporters wanted. the nominees for this year'

this isn't just a problem in texas or california or arizona or new mexico. every town is a border town, and every state is a border state. because of the drugs, the human trafficking, sex trafficking, and gangs that are streaming across our border. you know, it means that no matter how hard you try, you can't hide the tragedy that inevitably unfolds when your immigration policy is to have zero immigration policy at all; just open the border and let them come. i yield the floor. a senator: i rise today in anticipation of the historic vote that the? the will take in a few moments to debra anne haaland as secretary of the interior. i'm incredibly humble to be able to preside over this body's confirmation in just a few minutes of my good friend and fellow new mexican. mr. lujan: this marks the first time that a native american will take her seat in the president's cabinet, making her the second-highest ranking native american to ever serve in the federal government. as a pueblo woman and 35th generation native american, deb haaland will contribute to the departm
