联邦参议员海因里希赴工会市政厅，推动两党许可改革法案
新墨西哥州联邦参议员马丁·海因里希（Martin Heinrich）周一在阿尔伯克基国际区UA 412工会大厅与建筑行业工会成员举行市政厅会议，推动《2026年两党美国可负担性与就业法案》（Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act of 2026）在新一届国会开幕前获得通过。
该法案由海因里希上月与共和党参议员迈克·李（犹他州）、谢莉·摩尔·卡皮托（西弗吉尼亚州）及民主党参议员谢尔登·怀特豪斯（罗得岛州）共同提出，旨在为长期拖延联邦基建和能源项目的诉讼与异议设定严格时限，并对现有设施升级取消部分审查环节。「提起诉讼的权利依然存在，」海因里希在会上解释，「只是有了一个时间表。」
海因里希表示，尽管两党都承认联邦许可流程已经失灵，但就修复方案达成一致一直很困难。他指出，该法案已获得从石油行业保守派金主到清洁能源和劳工团体的广泛背书，这也是他周一走进工会大厅的原因。市政厅会议于10月12日中午在阿尔伯克基举行。

Sen. Heinrich Takes Bipartisan Permitting Reform Push to Albuquerque Union Town Hall
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — U.S. Sen. Martin Heinrich met with building trades union members at the UA Local 412 hall in Albuquerque's International District on Monday (Oct. 12), pushing for passage of the Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act of 2026 before the new Congress convenes.
Heinrich introduced the bill last month with Republican Sens. Mike Lee of Utah and Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia and Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island. It would set strict timelines for the lawsuits and objections that stall federal infrastructure and energy projects, and drop some reviews for upgrades to existing facilities. “The right to litigate still exists,” Heinrich explained at the town hall. “It just has a timeline.”
Heinrich said both parties agree the federal permitting process is broken, though agreement on the fix has been elusive. The bill has drawn a long list of endorsers, from conservative funders in the oil industry to clean energy and labor groups — which is why he brought the pitch to a union hall. Labor leaders at the meeting said slow permits leave projects unable to plan staffing, and estimated the reform could unlock up to 21,000 New Mexico jobs over the next decade.
