This shutdown was completely avoidable—and the only ones who lost were the American people. Families, children, and our federal workers should never be used as bargaining chips. We need leaders who will come to the table and work for the American people. It’s time to get back to work!
It’s been 55 days since I’ve seen most of my Republican colleagues since Speaker Johnson shut down the House. Even as the government is poised to reopen—it’s never been more clear that the GOP does not want to negotiate on healthcare or ensure justice for the Epstein survivors. Here’s the latest. ⬇️
As we close out the day, I want to give a special shout-out to Colonel Susana Corona! Colonel Corona has proudly served in the military for 29 years—and has led with courage and integrity. She embodies the very best of who we are. We are wishing you a joyful retirement—and a Happy Veterans Day!
The White House and GOP must stop playing games with American lives. While we need to reopen the government—until they come to the table with real solutions in legislation to solve the healthcare crisis they created—we’ll be right back here in a couple of months. That is why I’m voting “no.”
This Veterans Day and every day—we honor the courage, commitment, and service of those who have served. This year, we also celebrate the 250th birthday of the U.S. Marine Corps! To every veteran, active duty service member and military family: thank you for your service and your sacrifice.
So proud to be from New Mexico today! Our Governor has called a special legislative session to ensure New Mexicans continue to get food assistance while the Trump Admin and the GOP play politics with people’s lives. Thank you, @govmlg.bsky.social, for your unwavering leadership and commitment!
It has been an insane weekend when it comes to SNAP food benefits and efforts to reopen the government. Meanwhile, our food banks are working to make sure our families are fed—like Road Runner Food Bank, who I was honored to join on Friday for their weekly food distribution in the in ABQ.
That’s why @balint.house.gov and I introduced the Polluters Pay Act—to ensure polluters contributing to climate damage pay to help communities recover and become more resilient. Because polluters—not taxpayers should be on the hook as we transition to a more climate resilient world.
This is a direct violation of federal law and of federal trust and treaty responsibilities to our Tribal nations. We are calling on Secretary Burgum to immediately stop this process, meet with Tribal leaders, and uphold the buffer protecting Chaco's irreplaceable cultural heritage.
Chaco Canyon is a sacred landscape and the ancestral homeland of Indigenous communities from across New Mexico. This week we learned that the Department of the Interior may be rushing to revoke protections of the greater Chaco landscape to open it to oil and gas drilling.
This is what taking care of our community looks like. I'm so grateful to all of our partner orgs who showed up last night to help furloughed feds, families in need, and others across the community at our resource fair! I know times are tough right now, and we are doing everything we can to help.
