Overnight smoke from the Frijoles Fire settled into nearby valleys, leaving parts of Santa Fe with an Air Quality Index of "very unhealthy." Packed an extra N95 on my walk to work. The first person I saw asked for an extra mask, and I obliged.

Cundiyó and Cerro Pinon are now in "set" status. What that means from EMNRD www.emnrd.nm.gov/sfd/wp-conte...

I went to Española yesterday, and the results made the front page of the Gallup Independent this weekend

The front page of the March 1-2, 2025 edition of the Gallup Independent newspaper centers a photo of U.S. Rep. Teresa Leger Fernandez standing at a podium adorned with a sign that reads "Republican ripoff: Tax breaks for billionaires, high costs for you."

Leger Fernandez is flanked by health care workers and constituents at a news conference in Española, New Mexico. They're holding signs that read "Medicaid Saves Lives" and "Don't Kill Our Rural Clinics."

The story is titled 'Medicaid protects our system, patients': Mother, health providers, lawmakers sound alarm over proposed Medicaid cuts.

I knew this story was set to appear in this week's Santa Fe Reporter, but I didn't know it would be the cover story!!
