As a Biden Cabinet official, Haaland led the agency tasked with overseeing the nation's public lands and waters, and she reportedly worked to limit oil and gas extraction and expand the development of renewable energy resources.
According to The Hill, however, the Willow Project, a huge oil and gas drilling initiative in Alaska, was also reapproved during Haaland's tenure.
New Mexico, like many Western states, contains large tracts of land owned by the federal government.
During her time in the House, Haaland was a member of the progressive caucus and sat on the Natural Resources, Armed Services, and Oversight and Reform committees.
