When U.S. President Joe Biden visits New Mexico on Saturday to meet victims of the state's largest ever wildfire, Daniel Encinias hopes to ask him for a new house.
Encinias' home and hundreds more in northern New Mexico were torched in April after controlled burns by the U.S. Forest Service , meant to reduce wildfire risk, ran out of control.
Encinias and his family are among locals invited to Biden's visit to Santa Fe where he is expected to address USFS mistakes, federal compensation and the West's climate-driven wildfires. The rancher and retired electrician has so far received $37,000 from the Federal Emergency Management Agency , probably not enough for a new house foundation.
New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham visited the area on Tuesday and told locals she was trying to gain full federal compensation for recovery efforts, Encinias said.
