The Trump administration arrested journalists for exercising their First Amendment rights. The FBI raided a GA election office as part of a baseless conspiracy to overturn the 2020 election. And the White House is targeting states that did not vote for this president by cutting off critical funding.

On the one-year anniversary of the DCA crash, I’m praying for the families and loved ones of the 67 people we lost. We must honor their memory by doing everything possible to prevent this from ever happening again.
I voted NO on advancing the funding package before the Senate. There must be real accountability at the Department of Homeland Security. Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller need to go.
DHS and ICE must be reined in.
Stephen Miller is the architect of some of the worst and most dangerous of the Trump administration's policies. This includes the chaos in Minnesota. I called for his firing years ago, but he continues to serve in this White House. When will enough be enough? He should be fired.
No one is above the law or accountability. Secretary Noem should resign or be fired, but President Trump continues to stand by even his most dangerous admin officials.
The House is right to move forward with an investigation into Secretary Noem. Americans deserve accountability and transparency.
We saw with our own eyes a U.S. citizen killed by Trump’s federal agents. Yet this admin continues to spread lies.
What must happen now: a full and independent investigation; Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller must resign or be fired; and not another dollar for Noem’s DHS without real accountability.
President Trump, Kristi Noem, and Stephen Miller are making our communities and all Americans less safe. Enough is enough.
Kristi Noem and Donald Trump’s ICE is out of control and terrorizing our communities. With multiple deadly shootings of American citizens by federal agents in Minnesota & no accountability, I will not support an appropriations bill that funds DHS without real oversight, transparency, & consequences.
Giving Elon Musk and DOGE access to sensitive Social Security data was reckless and wrong. Americans raised the alarm. Now we need answers and accountability. Unacceptable. www.politico.com/news/2026/01...
Yesterday, I joined folks from across New Mexico for the Annual MLK Breakfast hosted by Grant Chapel AME. It was inspiring to see our communities come together and recommit to creating the change we want to see in the world, not just on this day, but every day.
🚨TODAY is the LAST DAY of open enrollment. Don’t miss your chance to get health coverage at bewellnm.com.
Food prices are up. Health care is more expensive.
President Trump promised to lower costs on day one. Instead, his harmful policies caused prices to soar, and he isn’t doing a damn thing to fix it.
Saddened by the passing of former Albuquerque Mayor David Rusk. He was a devoted public servant who worked tirelessly to foster a deep sense of community in Albuquerque. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones.
X’s Grok AI tool is being used to generate nonconsensual sexualized images of women and children. This is unacceptable. @wyden.senate.gov, @markey.senate.gov, and I are demanding that Apple and Google remove X and Grok from their app stores until Elon Musk addresses these heinous violations.

Affordability starts with transparency. Broadband labels should show the real price—no fine print, no surprises. Weakening consumer protections only drives bills higher and trust lower.

Secretary Hegseth and Secretary Rubio came to the Hill this week to brief all 100 Senators on the boat strike in the Caribbean. We didn’t learn anything new, just the continued cover-up. Congress has made its position clear – release the 2nd strike video.
Hegseth is not fit to hold his position.
Corruption.
🚨Update: No response from President Trump’s Department of Justice on releasing the Epstein Files.
An independent watchdog found that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared sensitive war plans on Signal, recklessly endangering our brave troops. Secretary Hegseth should take responsibility for his actions – and a growing list of scandals – and resign. Our men and women in uniform deserve better.
