Vasquez stays 🤐 on conflicts of interest

Gabe Vasquez has remained totally silent following the news of Interior Secretary Deb Haaland’s potential conflicts of interest in restricting oil and gas drilling in New Mexico. Haaland may have used her position for the private gain of her family. 

Last week, Vasquez applauded the decision to block future oil and gas leasing around Chaco Canyon for the next two decades.

“Gabe Vasquez is always happy to jump aboard the extremism train at the expense of New Mexicans. Vasquez will bend over backwards to excuse corruption and conflicts of interest as long as it means shutting down New Mexico oil and gas production.” — NRCC Spokeswoman Delanie Bomar

Background: 

• There are 115,000+ jobs in the New Mexico oil and gas industry and the state’s energy industry single-handedly gives billions to New Mexico’s public schools.
   
• Gabe Vasquez wants to “transition” away from American energy jobs. 
   
• Vasquez voted against legislation to produce more clean, reliable, and affordable energy in America. 
   
• Vasquez called to end oil and gas “immediately” and to “shut it all down.”
