New Mexico’s heat safety rules for outdoor workers are being delayed until March 2027 — just as the next governor takes office — sparking outrage from environmental advocates who warn record-breaking heatwaves demand immediate action.

In a separate legal move, a lawsuit targets federal agencies over cattle grazing in the Gila district, alleging harm to endangered species and fragile ecosystems tied to New Mexico’s Gila National Forest.
