Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Martin Heinrich’s (D. NM) re-election campaign:

When I saw this headline, I was shocked by the lengths the Trump Administration will go to reject science and drastically reduce the protections of our air and water.
They not only want to remove members of a major scientific review board, but they want to replace those objective members with lobbyists from the industries the EPA regulates!
President Trump is already pushing outrageous environmental changes to let these industries off the hook. From deep budget cuts to removing scientific studies from public view to now altering review boards, the deep-seated contempt for science and protections to keep our communities clean is astounding.
In New Mexico, we rely on sound science to protect our water, air, and our natural resources. Turning all of that over to corporate influence will only benefit their bottom lines, not the health of our communities.
