The Tug Of War For Our Public Lands

Our Conversation leader this month will be NM State Senator Jeff Steinborn. Jeff was elected to the New Mexico Senate in 2016 after serving in the House of Representatives District 35 from 2012-2016, and District 37 from 2006-2010. He serves as the Vice Chair of the Senate Rules Committee, a member of the Public Affairs Committee, and is the Chair of the Radioactive and Hazardous Materials Interim Committee.

During his time in office, Jeff has passed a diverse range of legislation including webcasting and archiving of legislative committee meetings, a constitutional amendment proposing the creation of an Independent Ethics Commission, campaign contribution limits, greater support of New Mexico’s veterans, protection of our water resources, allowing 17 year olds to vote in primary elections, and establishment of the planned 500 mile Rio Grande Trail.
