Tesla is bringing an electric vehicle sales and service facility to New Mexico, officials announced Thursday afternoon. Sen. Martin Heinrich, Sen. Ben Ray Lujan, and Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham joined Nambé Pueblo Gov. Phillip Perez to celebrate the first-ever partnership between Tesla and a sovereign Pueblo in bringing a clean energy facility to the Pueblo. Tesla in partnership with the pueblo plans to repurpose a defunct casino at Nambé into its first sales, service and delivery center in New Mexico. In a statement, Gov. Lujan Grisham said, "Automakers the world over acknowledge that low-emission and zero-emission vehicles are the future – New Mexico is on board, and has been on board, and the rest of the country is going to get on board, too. I welcome any and all good ideas from Tesla and the Pueblo of Nambé about how we can do even more.”“I hope that this is just the start of partnerships like this to bring economic opportunities to Tribal communities. I can’t wait to see how Tesla and the Pueblo will build on this partnership in the months and years ahead to train workers and employees for good-paying, long-term careers right here in Nambé,” said Senator Heinrich. The Senator supports President Biden's executive order to make 50% of new vehicles emissions free by 2030. Telsa prides itself on clean energy in its manufacturing and car sales to run and the Governor of Nambe Pueblo was proud to partner with the company. The lawmakers delivered remarks on Thursday and highlighted their ongoing efforts to decarbonize the nation's transportation infrastructure as well as to expand the accessibility of electric vehicles.
