Whether it’s behind the scenes in the Capitol or out and about in the community—we love our work! Taking a moment today to thank everyone in the community who makes our work possible. And, sharing a few behind the scenes photos from the last few weeks! Thank you! 🙏❤️

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 13(source)

This is why we have coequal branches of government. The people have spoken, and ensuring communities have funding to respond to natural disasters is important. Period.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 13(source)

ICYMI: Hi, friendly reminder from the Courts and Congress to the Admin—you can’t just cancel funding Congress has appropriated to help communities recover from natural disasters.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 13(source)

It’s been a long week! But we made it. Lots to report on the Epstein investigation, the latest release from the estate, and what happens leading up to next Friday, Dec 19th, when the Admin is required to release the files. ⬇️ youtu.be/jipbTfaxuJo?...

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 12(source)

Healthcare is a human right, and we are working to ensure our communities can access the healthcare they need. Today I testified in the Energy & Commerce Committee to help advance our priorities for New Mexico. We must ensure that our communities have the tools and support they need!

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 11(source)

Today I voted to advance a House impeachment resolution. This Administration has committed multiple potentially impeachable offenses. Impeachment requires investigations, hearings, and votes—and the majority won’t even pass a healthcare bill. But accountability must come.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 11(source)

For too long, mining companies have paid much less than they should have for their usage of our public lands. That’s why I introduced the CLAIM Act, which would stop these giveaways and ensure companies pay responsibly. Our public lands belong to us, not the companies that seek to destroy them.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 11(source)

Tonight we voted on the NDAA. In normal times, this is a bipartisan national security bill, but as we all know, these are not normal times ⬇️ youtu.be/Iq-6sq0_uPw

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 10(source)

Trump is at it again—this time taking bids to bulldoze historic federal buildings in DC and repaint the Executive Office building. But, we’re here to tell him {tiny} hands off our history! Hands off our heritage! And hands off our buildings!

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 10(source)

This is amazing news for our neighbors in Albuquerque! Healthcare is a human right. Everyone deserves access and care, regardless of their circumstances. I’m so grateful to the UNM medical team who is doing this vital work on the ground.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 10(source)

Water is life. El agua es vida. As a lifelong water resources professional—I have always defended the rights of our communities to access water and am not stopping now. So, let’s call this so-called PERMIT Act what it actually is—another corporate giveaway and attack on the Clean Water Act.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 9(source)

Our communities are built on the strength, resilience, and love of the families who have lived here for generations. What our immigrant communities are being subjected to right now is unconstitutional, illegal, and immoral. No one should live in fear in the country we call home.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 9(source)

Friends—there’s 10 days until Congress leaves for the holidays and a LOT is happening—from the Epstein files, to the NDAA, healthcare, and a slough of GOP “permitting” bills that would gut environmental protections, to bills we are introducing. There’s a lot on tap! ⬇️

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 9(source)

The Trump Admin is trying to use food as a weapon AGAIN—threatening to cut off SNAP if states don’t hand over data. We all know this is a thinly veiled attempt to further harm our communities, and we won’t stand for it. Proud of our state leaders for fighting back!

New Mexico plans to challenge Trump administration request for personal SNAP data

SANTA FE — New Mexico is bracing for a showdown with President Donald Trump’s administration over the federal government’s threat to withhold food assistance funding if the state doesn’t turn

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 9(source)

From visiting one of my favorite places—the Bernalillo Feed Store (Frank’s!)—to joining the Bernalillo Historical Society and Mayor Torres at the Community Museum to talk about the history of the town, to talking policy with State Senator Cindy Nava, a day spent in Bernalillo is a day well spent! ❤️💛

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 8(source)

TIME IS UP—WE NEED A HEALTHCARE PLAN, NOW. Why is the GOP not scheduling a vote in the House THIS WEEK?? The lives of millions of Americans are on the line. This is literally life or death.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 8(source)

We wanted to kick off the week by sharing some the joyful moments from the naturalization ceremony we attended last week. Your stories are forever woven into the fabric of our country, our communities, and what it means to be New Mexican and American—and we are grateful you are here! 🇺🇸✨

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 6(source)

But, clearly the work is not finished. The legacy of slavery and injustice continues to echo through our institutions, our policies, and the inequities our communities face. Particularly today. We must continue bending the moral arc towards justice and defending the rights of our communities.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 6(source)

Today, we mark the ratification of the 13th Amendment—one of the most consequential steps in our country’s ongoing journey towards freedom and justice.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialDec 6(source)

It certainly cannot be an accident that on the eve of the 13th Amendment’s anniversary, the Supreme Court’s conservative majority announced it would revisit birthright citizenship and the 14th Amendment to the Constitution.
