Happy Mother’s Day!
Today, like every day, I carry my mom’s memory with me. She is there in my heart, my work, and in the quiet moments that remind me of her strength and her compassion, creativity, and love.
This isn’t about “unleashing American energy.” It’s about greed and power and stripping away our rights. We’re fighting back!
The GOP’s reconciliation bill is one of the worst environmental bills I’ve ever seen.
It guts public input, silences tribal and community voices, slashes environmental protections, and hands sacred and public lands to the lowest bidder with no accountability.
We know New Mexico is facing a rural healthcare crisis—that’s why we’re proud to join in co-sponsoring the Rural Wellness Act with the Congressional Health Caucus to expand access to rural health care and telehealth across the state and our country!
Welcome to the DOGE Subcommittee—this is what it has become. They can gavel me all day—but I will always fight for what is right—at home and in Washington.
Happy #SmallBusinessWeek! There’s no better time to celebrate the incredible small businesses that are the heartbeat of our state.
These are our neighbors, job creators, and community builders. Let’s show up for them like they show up for us. ❤️
What is your fave small business in NM?
What a week on Capitol Hill! We stood our ground through a 14-hour Natural Resources markup to fight for our communities, our public lands, and for truth, dignity, and democracy across every hearing—because the Congressional Record and our fight matter.
Today marks the anniversary of the FDA’s approval of the first birth control pill—a HUGE milestone in our fight for reproductive freedom.
Birth control has empowered generations of women to take control of their health and their future—but we must not forget that these rights are under attack.
Let’s be honest: the policies they’re pushing? LITERALLY straight out of Project 2025. The same plan they claimed they had nothing to do with.
Now they’re writing them into law—gutting public lands, rejecting science, and handing out kickbacks to their corporate buddies.
We’re fighting back!
This #NationalNursesWeek, we honor the heart of our healthcare system—our nurses. From rural clinics to urban hospitals, in every community & every crisis, nurses show up with compassion, courage, & care.
Thank you for your service, your advocacy, and your dedication. We see you & stand with you.
In Donald Trump’s America, not even Elmo is safe.
That’s why we’re here today to stand for a free and fair press—which is vital to our democracy. ✊
We’re more than 8 hours into this Reconciliation markup in the House Natural Resources Committee and the GOP has completely stopped engaging on answering basic questions about their own bill.
We have never seen anything like it. It’s going to be a long night.
Friends, starting tomorrow, May 7th, if you want to fly domestically or enter certain federal buildings, you will need a REAL ID!
For more information visit: realid.mvd.newmexico.gov or give my office a call at (505) 346-6781.
Happy National Teacher Appreciation Day! Today, we honor the teachers and educators who inspire, support, and empower our students every day.
We know Trump is dismantling the Department of Education and eliminating vital programs that help our students, and we stand with our teachers and educators.
Then there was that time the Republicans didn’t stick around in committee for THEIR OWN reconciliation bill.
We’re motioning to adjourn on this ridiculous bill. #DemsShowUp!
Everything about this Reconciliation bill in Natural Resources is a total lie. It’s bad for our:
- Economy
- Environment
- Communities
That’s why we’re prepared to sit here all day and fight it every step of the way.
Today on #MMIWDay we honor the Indigenous women and relatives who are missing and have been taken and recommit to addressing this systemic violence and ensuring there are #NoMoreStolenSisters.
We stand with Native families and communities in the fight to end this crisis. #MMIWR #MMIWP
We have our winner for the Congressional Art Competition!
Meet Ruby, a student at Albuquerque High who submitted her work called “The Burn,” which is a scene from the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta.
What an amazing piece! ❤️
