Voters need to understand that Biden will kill many good-paying jobs.

[TexasM1A]

Are they on Federal Land?

[TexasM1A]

Nevermind.
Swing New Mexico to the Good guys, put the progs out of power, nothing like helping yourselves out, be proactive.

[karpov]

Yes, the article says that in New Mexico, most of the Permian Basin fracking is done on federal land.

[DuncanWaring]

And his enforcers will kill many good people.

“And his enforcers will kill many good people”.

That’s a two way street.

[iamgalt]

many very bad things are waiting in the weeds and hidden by MSM if these people take over.

[Dusty Road]

That could get very expensive, many of the companies operating that area have long term lease agreements. Going to take a whole lot of money to buy out those leases or change the rules before their leases expire. We’re talking future production from those leases.

[Army Air Corps]

Ping.

[choctaw man]

Call Longmire

[DuncanWaring]

Why, yes.

Yes it is.

[marktwain]

It is hard to know how serious Biden is about "Climate Change".

The entire Left is deranged on the subject.

[SanchoP]

There is no Federal land in Texas which is most of the Permian Basin.

[laplata]

👍

[Vendome]

Seems like the people of New Mexico should have a fairly good clue on how to vote then

[simpson96]

wonder how many suburban females in NM will cancel out their votes? *spit*

[CedarDave]

Thanks for the ping AAC. Pinging the NM list — It’s important that all NM Freepers read as it identifies the impact of a Biden administration fracking ban on the state, both for well paying jobs and revenue to state coffers. Most current oil drilling in Lea and Eddy counties is on Federal Bureau of Land Management lands with some on State lands.

Not this one, by golly.

[LegendHasIt]

I guess this is why Xochitl is running ads pretending to have the endorsement of the NM Oil & Gas Association?

[CedarDave]

Pretending is the operative word. The head of NMOGA, Ryan Flynn, didn’t directly endorse her but did say “he could work with her.” He got slammed by Steve Pearce, Pub party head, for that comment. We all know that Dems say anything to get elected but do whatever the party tells them to, in this case her record is 95% agreement with Pelosi and her background is a staffer for retiring Dem Senator Udall.
