KUNM: NM Delegation Reintroduces Wilderness Bill
Members of New Mexico’s congressional delegations are trying again to designate the 45,000-acre Columbine-Hondo area in Taos County as wilderness.
Sens. Tom Udall and Martin Heinrich, both Democrats, on Monday reintroduced legislation to give the area permanent wilderness status. A companion bill is expected to be introduced in the House Tuesday by Rep. Ben Ray Luján, a Democrat who represents northern New Mexico.
