Chaco Canyon holds deep cultural, historical, and spiritual significance. It’s now been named one of America’s most endangered places as the Trump administration actively works to undo its protections.

Earth Day is a reminder. The planet doesn't wait for politics to catch up. In New Mexico, we're not waiting either. Last week, SunZia Wind came online right here in New Mexico — the largest renewable energy project ever built in the United States. 916 turbines. 3.5 gigawatts of clean power. 550 miles of transmission line carrying New Mexico wind energy powering the western grid. We're not waiting. #EnergyTransition #RenewableEnergy #EarthDay2026

The story of New Mexico's Greater Chaco shows what long-term conservation can look like. Since 1907, presidents and Congress from across the political spectrum have worked with Tribal leaders to safeguard this vital cultural landscape. #ProtectChaco pewtrsts.org/47wf4Os

A UNESCO World Heritage Site with thousands of years of Tribal history, Chaco Canyon is home to remarkable buildings, shrines, roads, and archaeological resources that tell the story of some of the earliest peoples of this continent. Its cultural and archaeological significance is simply beyond measure. The Trump Administration's move to strip protections from the land surrounding this sacred site is wrong. I stand firmly with New Mexico's Congressional Delegation and our Nations, Pueblos, and Tribes in opposing this action. Chaco Canyon is not for sale. #ChacoCanyon #NativeAmericanHeritage #CulturalPreservation

Protect Chaco Canyon! Trump’s DOI has announced a proposal to revoke protections for the Greater Chaco Canyon Landscape to open it to oil and gas drilling—potentially destroying sites that have been sacred to Pueblo and Diné indigenous communities for generations. And, they have given only 7 days for public comment! We need your voices before April 7th—to say NO to drilling in the Greater Chaco Landscape and revoking protections for this sacred place. You can submit public comment here: eplanning.blm.gov/Project-Ho…

Chaco Canyon is a living cultural landscape that holds deep historical meaning and is a sacred space for many of our New Mexico Tribes. It is not just one more place to drill. The disrespect shown by the Trump administration toward New Mexicans seems to know no bounds. sourcenm.com/2026/04/01/new-…

Chaco Canyon is sacred. As the Trump Administration rushes to push through oil and gas leasing in the greater Chaco Landscape—they announced yesterday that they will give only ONE WEEK for public comment on removing protections for this sacred place. Make your voice heard! NO to drilling in Chaco Canyon! ⬇️ eplanning.blm.gov/Project-Ho…

Chaco Canyon is sacred ground. When President Biden protected the Greater Chaco Landscape, it was a historic step that honored tribal voices and safeguarded thousands of irreplaceable cultural sites. Efforts now underway to roll back protections threaten irreplaceable history. We must continue protecting #ChacoCanyon and stand with tribal leaders calling for its preservation.

Chaco Canyon is one of the most important living cultural landscapes on the planet and we have long called for its permanent protection. It's not about the past–it’s about the generations to come. I’ll continue to fight for it because it is a place worth protecting.

Protecting New Mexico’s Chaco Canyon has support from Tribes, local government, bipartisan leaders, and conservationists. The @Interior decision to ban oil and gas leasing in the region safeguards the environment and cultural history. #ProtectChaco pew.org/3PCOJpR
