NM House Moves Forward With Sagebrush Lizard Protection

From biologicaldiversity.org -New Mexico lawmakers today dealt a blow to those opposing Endangered Species Act protection for the rare dunes sagebrush lizard by rejecting a bill that sought to delay those protections for one year.

Bandy (R-Aztec) during a special session of the New Mexico legislature convened primarily to redraw the state’s legislative and congressional districts.  More News New Mexico
