Communities around ABQ and the Sandia Mountains are dealing with the consequences of neglect on sacred and public lands.
Understaffing and failed management cannot be an excuse for putting our forests, watersheds, and sacred places at risk. The Forest Service must hold up its end of the bargain!

Making the government more efficient doesn’t have to be partisan - it should be something every Member of Congress can support! And that’s why I teamed up with Rep. Tim Burchett on a bipartisan bill to make sure your taxpayer dollars are actually being used effectively and responsibly!
Mental health is health care—period.
Proud to co-sponsor the Medicaid Bump Act w/ @reppaultonko.bsky.social, Rep. Brian Fitz, & @smith.senate.gov to strengthen mental and behavioral health and help states expand care through increased Medicaid support. Everyone deserves access to support!
The last few weeks—we’ve been pounding the pavement on Capitol Hill & across the country to defend voting rights, support tribes, land grants, & our communities, pass legislation out of committee, support survivors, & defend our democracy. Every day we’re grateful to be in this fight with you! ✊
As Shavuot comes to a close, I am wishing peace and renewal to everyone observing across New Mexico and the world. This holiday reminds us of the power of community and a shared responsibility to care for one another. Chag Sameach to all celebrating. 💙✨
This week, we caught up with Sam Barncastle, the new director of the Family Farm Alliance and a 7th-generation farmer from Mesilla, NM—chile capital of the world! 🌶️—to talk water and ag. She was here to rep our farmers, ranchers, and talk about how we get through this drought!
Keep making us proud!
Trump wants to give $1.8 billion to the same people who destroyed our Capitol, attempted to overthrow a free and fair election on Jan 6, and attacked police officers.
Not on our watch! We are fighting back against this outrageous insult to our nation’s law enforcement and to democracy itself.
In New Mexico, water is life. Water is not just for fighting over—it’s for collaborating, sharing, and ensuring our communities are taken care of.
New Mexico is leading the way in countless ways, and we’re so proud of the leaders in the state showing the way! 💧
Just weeks before Howard Lutnick’s testimony in the Oversight Committee on the Epstein investigation, he made a $5 million campaign donation—his first since becoming Secretary. And who did he make it to?
A super PAC for House Republicans.
Let’s let that sink in.
Choice words coming from the same man dragging us into illegal wars, covering up the biggest sex scandal in American history, and trying to spend taxpayers' dollars on a $1 billion ballroom.
Let’s be real here—the projection is coming from inside the house. The White House, that is.
New Mexicans are struggling right now while this Administration is robbing taxpayers & bleeding Americans dry.
Our families are exhausted & hopeless—& deserve leadership that actually cares about them and the future. Which is why I am working every single day to make sure they’re taken care of!
Healthcare is a human right!
This week I introduced my bipartisan SURS Extension Act to support small, underserved, and rural healthcare clinics across America. This bill helps clinics access support to deliver care in the communities that need it most.
Why are all the women resigning and getting fired, and not the men?
One thing is certain—abuse by Epstein and Maxwell did happen at Zorro Ranch. And—we will not stop until there is justice for survivors.
We will never stop fighting to protect New Mexico's lands, waters, and communities!
From Chilili to Manzano, Tajique to Carnuel, Anton Chico to Tomé—our land grants are rooted in our culture, community, and care for the land. Thank you to Land Grant Council Chair Juan Sanchez for joining us in DC!
Shavuot begins at sundown tonight 🌾✨ Wishing everyone celebrating a meaningful holiday filled with joy, learning, and time with loved ones. Chag Sameach!
Another chaotic week at your nation’s capitol!
-Reconciliation on ice
-War Powers pulled
-Trump’s Jan 6 slush fund
-GOP imploding
-And we’re headed back to NM
Here’s what went down ⬇
13 American lives lost in Iran. Billions of our taxpayer dollars sent overseas. Gas prices skyrocketing. No exit plan or strategy.
Once again we say: END THIS WAR NOW!
New Mexico is facing a potentially catastrophic water year—with low snow pack and drought conditions that may dry the Rio Grande THIS WEEK!
And, it’s only May.
We’re pressing federal water managers to ensure they deliver real solutions for NM!
Today the Senate is expected to pass a slush fund for ICE. This is why it matters:
Women detained in inhumane conditions. People denied medical care. Families separated. Children taken from their parents. Human suffering treated as policy.
Congress cannot look away. We are fighting back!
