Latino voters in Mountain West states consider climate-related issues to be key at the time of deciding whether to support an elected official, a new poll by the Hispanic Access Foundation shows.
The poll surveyed the views of voters in Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. They were asked about issues regarding public lands, waters and climate change, and most of them showed concern over loss of habitats and declining fish and wildlife populations, inadequate and polluted water supplies, microplastics, uncontrollable wildfires, among others.
