Show Notes
Democratic Senator Martin Heinrich from New Mexico opposes former Congressman Steve Pearces nomination for Bureau of Land Management director due to his past stance on monument protections and land sales. Despite Pearces assurance against changing monument status and supporting illegal land sales, Heinrichs decision is influenced by public opinion. Environmental groups oppose Pearce, while supporters like the National Cattlemens Beef Association, New Mexico conservation districts, and the Navajo Nation back him. The Senate committee plans to vote on Pearces nomination this Wednesday, anticipating a close call on his confirmation.
