Republicans refused to debate a bill that would rip food off families’ plates—then high-fived when it passed. That’s not leadership—it’s shameful. I’ll always stand up for the programs our communities count on.

My thoughts are with President Biden and his family during this difficult time. I’m wishing him strength, healing, and hope as he begins treatment. New Mexicans are keeping him in our prayers.

Republicans voted to take away healthcare and food assistance from millions of families, including over 218,000 people right here in New Mexico. Why? To pay for more tax breaks for billionaires.

I launched the Bipartisan Public Lands Caucus to protect access to the places that define who we are—and we just delivered our first victory: stopping a plan to sell off thousands of acres of public land in Utah and Nevada. Public lands stay in public hands.

Republicans just passed a 1000-page bill in the dead of night that strips health care and takes food off the tables of New Mexicans—all to hand billionaires another tax break. It will raise costs, close hospitals, and hurt our families. I voted NO. New Mexico deserves better.

Horrified by the deadly, antisemitic attack at the Capital Jewish Museum. My heart is with the victims’ families and all impacted. We must stand united against hate and ensure safety, dignity, and peace for all communities.

This National EMS Week, I’m sending my deepest thanks to the emergency medical professionals serving southern New Mexico. From rural clinics to border towns, your commitment saves lives every day. I’m fighting to protect access to Narcan and ensure you have the tools you need to

Fire danger is extreme across New Mexico. The State Forester has enacted restrictions on smoking, campfires, fireworks, and open burning in 18 counties. Please do your part to prevent wildfires. More info: emnrd.nm.gov/sfd/find-curre…

Firefighters risk their lives to keep us safe—they shouldn’t have to worry if their gear is safe. That’s why I’m proud to cosponsor the PFAS Alternatives Act to support the development of PFAS-free protective equipment. Let’s protect those who protect us.

Ranchers in New Mexico are dealing with the devastating outbreak of New World screwworm in Mexico—flies that burrow into livestock and eat them alive. They can’t afford delays. That is why I introduced a bipartisan bill to combat the NWS outbreak and demanded that the USDA do

I have proudly co-sponsored the Invest to Protect Act, which gives small police departments more resources for training, recruitment, and mental health services. Our officers deserve support to do their jobs safely and effectively in every community.

Buried in the fine print of a sweeping federal package dubbed the “One Big Beautiful Bill” was a quiet land grab. That language is now gone from the bill — scrapped because of bipartisan pressure from those of us who still believe in fighting for what’s right.

Recently, the troop deployment to the border has created a military zone that has taken over the management of federal public lands. It’s unclear where the boundaries of this military zone actually start and end. It’s unclear not just to hunters or people who enjoy the land,
