The Constitution gives Congress, not the President, the power to declare war.
War should not be entered into on a whim by a single person. We must do everything we can to protect American lives and our military in every base, in every place. Trump’s acts are unconstitutional. (1/2)
Thank you, Los Alamos, for joining us at today's town hall. It was wonderful to see you all, especially alongside Rep. Christine Chandler.
Let's keep fighting for New Mexico—together!

We must work with our allies to pursue a diplomatic resolution—one that ends Iran’s nuclear program and makes sure it cannot threaten Israel or regional peace. Diplomacy, backed by strength and coordination, remains our best path forward.
President Trump recklessly withdrew from that deal, removing restrictions and giving Iran a green light to resume its nuclear ambitions.
But let’s remember how we got here: although imperfect, the Obama administration negotiated a nuclear agreement that successfully and verifiably prevented Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.
I have called on Speaker Johnson to immediately reconvene the House to respond to possible military action in Iran. He must also immediately convene a classified congressional briefing on the escalating conflict.
That’s why I’ve signed onto the bipartisan War Powers resolution to prohibit U.S. involvement in the Israel-Iran war without congressional approval.
But let’s be clear: the authority to declare war belongs solely to the United States Congress. President Trump does not have congressional approval to take offensive military action against Iran.
It would be incredibly dangerous for Iran to obtain a nuclear weapon. I am concerned that the current war could rapidly spiral into a broader war in the Middle East, with grave consequences for regional stability and American lives.

The Congressional Women’s Softball Game is just around the corner and I’m getting ready by practicing my batting skills in New Mexico.
Tune in for this year’s game for a good cause—breast cancer awareness.

Today on Juneteenth, we celebrate the end of slavery and honor Black women’s tremendous contributions to our nation’s culture and history.
The Trump administration isn't just going after "regulations," they're going after your health.

Rural hospitals like this one are what the Bad Billionaires Budget puts at risk when it cuts billions from Medicaid.
We must protect rural hospitals. Lives depend on it.
Yesterday, I visited Miners Colfax Medical Center in Raton—the only facility with obstetric care within 100 miles—as part of my Save Our Rural Hospital Tour.
80% of their OB patients get care through Medicaid.
Read the letter:
Married or not, Democrat or Republican, every veteran deserves care. No veteran should be denied care because of who they love or how they vote.
Trump’s new VA rule lets doctors discriminate based on marital status, sexual orientation, or political beliefs. We’re fighting back.
