New Mexico does not need a new way to make energy scarce. Senate Bill 18, branded as the “Clear Horizons Act,” would write an economy-wide emissions mandate into law and then hand regulators the power to re-engineer how New Mexicans produce and use energy. The bill sets statewide emissions caps pegged to 2005 levels and ratchets them tighter, to “one hundred percent less,” by mid-century, effectively turning “net zero” into a legal requirement. In plain English, it is an energy-rationing bill dressed up as a feel-good slogan.

Indiana’s Senate Bill (SB) 76 is a wide-ranging bill that strengthens immigration enforcement and cooperation statewide. The bill focuses on two main areas of immigration enforcement. First, it amends Indiana’s existing anti-sanctuary law, originally adopted in 2011, to require all jurisdictions to honor immigration detainers and to close loopholes that impede enforcement. Second, it bars employers from hiring illegal workers. Finally, SB 76 also helps identify benefits fraud and abuse through the collection and reporting of certain non-identifiable data of recipients.
