A House of Representatives committee gave a do-pass recommendation to House Memorial 62, which recognizes the impact of the Hermits Peak/Calf Canyon Fire on residents and communities of northeastern New Mexico, during a brief meeting where no members registered opposition.
A presenter told the committee that the memorial is intended to recognize the fire's impact on residents and communities. Representative Mason moved a do-pass recommendation and Vice Chair Sanchez seconded the motion. The chair recorded no opposition and marked members present as affirmative, giving the memorial a do-pass recommendation.
The presenter did not specify damages, dollar amounts, or named communities beyond the general description in the memorial. Committee members did not debate substantive changes to the memorial on the record, and no public commenters in the transcript voiced support or opposition when the chair asked.
The committee chair thanked staff and members for their work, and the meeting adjourned after the action on the memorial.
