Senator Fred Harris will be deeply missed and his memory will leave a hole in our community that can’t be replaced. His legacy will live on in all of the young people that he inspired and mentored on their way to becoming leaders in the ongoing fight for justice.
Exciting news! Parts of my Water Data Act and Rio Grande Water Security Act made it into the Water Resources Development Act. This will ensure everyone has access to water data resources. This is not just a win for New Mexicans, but everyone in the country!
Indigenous people have been stewards of the land and water since time immemorial.     Now more than ever, their voices and expertise must be heard as we make our way to a climate-resilient future. It is the only way to make a just transition.
Join me on Meet the Press NOW with @kristenwelker.bsky.social in about 10 minutes as we chat about the next generation of Democratic leaders and what we're going to do in Congress to combat Trump and Project 2025. See you soon on @nbcnews.com NOW!
My life's work on water issues isn't just a job, but a calling. It's a part of who I am and why I am here in Congress.  I will never stop fighting for clean water for our communities, Tribal water sovereignty, and water protection from polluters.
We need bold, new leaders with fresh ideas to take on Trump and Project 2025. I've dedicated my career to finding solutions to land, water, climate issues and fighting for our communities. That's why I'm running for Ranking Member of the House Committee on Natural Resources. Let's make history!
As I've had conversations with colleagues and the community, it's clear that bold, new leadership is needed to take on Trump’s dangerous, "drill, baby, drill" agenda and fight on the frontlines for our air, land, and water. Luckily, I've spent my entire career doing just that.
New Mexico Wilderness Alliance is on the frontlines every day in the fight to protect our lands. I’m grateful for their support and voice as I consider running to be the first woman Ranking Member of the House Natural Resources Committee. Now more than ever we need bold, new leadership.
So grateful for my sister from the North's support! As the newly elected Chair of the Democratic Women's Caucus and leadership on HNRC, @fernandez.house.gov knows how important this committee is to our communities, and how vital it is to ensure women serve in leadership positions! ❤️
I am deeply honored and humbled by this endorsement from the current Ranking Member, whose historic tenure has kept Tribes, climate, and environmental justice at the forefront of our work. I am so deeply proud and honored to represent NM and our communities on this committee and in Congress.
