He became a U.S. citizen and served in the Navy. He witnessed two nuclear tests in the Pacific, exposing him to several lifetimes' worth of radiation.
He was an immigrant. He came to this country as a boy to escape the violent populism and virulent anti-intellectualism that gripped 1930s Germany.
My father’s name was Pete Heinrich. This is his flag. It occupies a place of honor in my home. When I look at it this Independence Day, I think of his story...
On Independence Day, let’s recommit to the work of building America. A nation founded on the fundamental principle of freedom. One that takes care of its people and places and seeks to include, rather than exclude.
Together, let’s turn fear into hope.
Largest cut to Medicaid in American history.
Largest transfer of wealth to the rich in American history.
Largest cut to food assistance in American history.
Just like Senate Republicans, House Republicans chose greed, cruelty, & a callous disregard for the people they represent.
If you don't support cuts to Medicaid, don't vote for it.
If you don't support cuts to food assistance, don't vote for it.
It really is that simple.
A big, beautiful betrayal. My statement on Republicans' cruelty:
If this bill passes, Republicans will own increased energy prices.
This bill is a disaster for Americans’ health care. It will leave tens of millions uninsured, cut food assistance for millions more, force hundreds of nursing homes and rural hospitals to close, and cause health insurance premiums to skyrocket.
Republicans know all of this.
With their Big, Beautiful Betrayal Bill, congressional Republicans are abandoning everyday Americans and bending over backwards to deliver for mega corporations and billionaire donors.
Republicans’ Big Beautiful Betrayal Bill could close up to 8 rural hospitals in New Mexico and more than 300 nationwide. They just voted to keep those closures in the bill anyway.
All for billionaire tax handouts. Cruel and sickening.
FACT:
-Energy demand is increasing
FACT:
-Republicans are eliminating the cheapest, fastest-to-build energy sources
FACT:
-Republicans are gutting energy efficiency standards and tax credits that save you money
FACT:
-Republicans' actions are increasing your utility bills
Today is a major victory for our public lands. Thank YOU for your incredible outpouring in defense of our American birthright. Because of you, the lands that we cherish will remain OURS.
And to those already plotting to go after our public lands another way: Don’t. Unless you like losing.
Senate Republicans’ bill will hurt Americans in every state.

Call your senators and tell them HELL NO on this Big Billionaire Bailout.

Trump’s policies have real consequences. And Sandia’s effort to reduce its workforce plays into this Administration’s dismantling of federal agencies, undercutting national security, and devaluing science. The Trump Administration needs to stop playing politics with our Labs and economy.

“I’m seeing a shared love of public lands and a lot of willingness to push party politics aside for something this valuable."
