I’m proud to introduce bipartisan legislation today to make pecans, pistachios, and other tree nuts eligible for USDA’s Senior Farmers' Market Nutrition Program. This will expand access to nutritious foods and support local farmers.
Mr. Bisignano doesn't know New Mexico and he doesn't understand the lengths some New Mexicans have to travel for help with Social Security. He wouldn't commit to not closing the few rural Social Security field offices we do have. Unacceptable.
White women earn 73¢ for every $1 paid to men. Black women: 64¢ Latina women: 51¢ Indigenous women: 52¢ Asian American, Native Hawaiian & Pacific Islander women: as little as 48¢ It’s 2025. This is unacceptable. #EqualPayNow
It doesn't matter what your position is; anyone who mishandles or discloses classified information should face a criminal investigation - full stop. As Hegseth once said: “If at the very top there's no accountability," then we have "two tiers of justice."
Yesterday, we celebrated the anniversary of the Affordable Care Act and the millions of lives it has saved. One of the proudest moments in my career was voting to enact the ACA. Republicans trying to rip health coverage away from 45 million people is shameful and must be stopped.
A non-partisan organization found that a new round of the Trump Tax Scam for the wealthy will increase the primary deficit by $4 trillion. Billionaires love to see it. Hardworking, blue-collar families can’t afford it.
The Secretary of Defense and some of the Trump administration's highest-ranking officials recklessly shared highly sensitive military plans in a Signal group chat. The Trump administration must provide the American people with clear answers regarding how this security breach occurred.
After 2 years of fighting for the Chimayó Post Office to be rebuilt following the fire, a new location has finally been announced. The post office is a vital part of the community, and its absence has been deeply felt. I will continue pushing for the post office to be rebuilt as quickly as possible.
Today, thousands of military personnel, veterans and civilians gather at White Sands for the Bataan Memorial Death March to honor the brave soldiers who endured unimaginable hardship. This annual trek is a powerful tribute to ensure their sacrifice is never forgotten.
My prayers are with the Las Cruces community in the aftermath of last night’s shooting. I’m thankful for the law enforcement and first responders for their swift action. My office will be following this investigation closely.
This is illegal.   President Trump is making it easier for Elon Musk and his billionaire friends to exploit consumers and small businesses by firing those who protect Americans from unfair and deceptive practices.   He is willing to break the law to get rid of anyone who stands in his way.
Medicaid covers 33% of people in NM. Republicans want to rip Medicaid away from children & families to fund a tax scam for their rich friends.   It was a privilege to meet with El Centro Family Health to discuss how we can work together to ensure New Mexicans have access to affordable, quality care.
It was a privilege to celebrate the completion of two critical water infrastructure projects in rural Doña Ana County today. Water is life, and we can’t afford to waste a single drop. I was proud to secure the funding to make these projects possible.
