[News from New Mexico Solar Energy Association]

Hi Solar Enthusiasts!

In response to feedback that the blasts are too long and too often, 
we've decided to send the blast out twice per month and to only include 
new items on each blast.  On occasion we may send an extra if we get 
short notice on something we think you wouldn't want to miss.

Please see the NMSEA Event Calendar for the complete list of events at

Solar Nation is a national campaign that involves you, America's solar 
citizen. The object of the campaign is to make solar power a significant 
part of this country's energy future. We will achieve this by building a 
large membership of well-informed solar citizens who are dedicated to 
the advancement of renewable energy in general and solar energy in 
particular; this citizenry will use its voice to convince State and 
Federal policy makers to create a political climate favorable to solar 
energy development and use.
Through our network of partner organizations we remain close to current 
developments in the world of solar energy and the corridors of power. 
We're also prepared to react quickly to political maneuverings by 
alerting every solar citizen to significant impending legislation. When 
our lawmakers understand that large numbers of voters are solar 
citizens, they should enact the kind of legislation our Solar Nation needs.
