Haaland: Putting BLM employees first is priority in headquarters decision


Visiting in Grand Junction Friday, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland emphasized her goal of first and foremost considering the well-being of Bureau of Land Management as she considers whether the agency’s headquarters should remain in the city or be returned to Washington, D.C.
But she also voiced an open mind regarding the possibility of Grand Junction playing what she called a “significant role” in the BLM’s future.
Haaland heard from community leaders, Gov. Jared Polis and members of Colorado’s congressional delegation on the issue Friday, but also spoke to the BLM’s headquarters group, including 20 at the headquarters office and a few hundred others elsewhere in the West and in Washington.

COLORADO, USA — On Interior Secretary Deb Haaland’s second day on the job, a small group of supporters parked a video screen outside the department’s headquarters in Washington, D.C., to flash messages of encouragement and thanks. Under a light rain, Haaland — the first Native American secretary of the Interior — came out for a look.

Senate confirms New Mexico's Deb Haaland as interior secretary


Colorado has much to gain and lose from the U.S. Senate's confirmation of Deb Haaland as secretary of the interior Monday.
The vote was close: 51-40, mostly with Republicans in opposition because they see her as a threat to fossil fuels with her strident views on using public land for resources.
Colorado's Sens. Michael Bennet and John Hickenlooper, who have supported Haaland's nomination, missed Monday's vote because flights from Denver International Airport were canceled Sunday due to the blizzard.
She is the first Native American and only the third woman to hold the job. Former Colorado Attorney General Gale Norton, a Republican, was the first, when she was nominated by George W. Bush in 2001. Sally Jewell was picked by Barack Obama in 2013.

Haaland confirmed in historic vote, setting stage for tackling issues including BLM HQ


The U.S. Senate confirmed the nomination Monday of Deb Haaland to become Interior secretary and the first Native American Cabinet secretary in history. Attention will now turn to what kind of history she makes on everything from the future of oil and gas development on federal lands to the status of the Bureau of Land Management headquarters in Grand Junction.
The Senate voted 51-40 to confirm the nomination of Haaland, a New Mexico Democrat who has been serving in the U.S. House of Representatives. She faced considerable opposition from Republicans.
U.S. Sens. Michael Bennet and John Hickenlooper, both Colorado Democrats, voted for her confirmation in preliminary votes, although neither could cast a final vote Monday because the weekend’s snowstorm delayed their flights back to Washington, D.C., from Colorado.
