We haven't quite confirmed our schedule for the fall but once we have that form I will make sure to get this in front of our team.
Thank you and talk soon.

We would be honored to host Secretary Wright at the New Mexico Oil & Gas Association Annual Meeting on Oct. 7-8, 2025 in Santa Fe, NM as a keynote speaker. He would speak on Oct. 8. The Secretary has attended NMOGA in recent years, and we'd love to hear his perspective from his new role.
We are also inviting Sec. Burgum, and we would love to have them both there together!
Attached please find an invitation with more information. I would be happy to work through a schedule with you to ensure that we can best accommodate the Secretary and the staff that may attend with him.
Thank you for your consideration! Please let me know if you have any questions.
