Friends, I know so many are struggling out there during this shutdown. As our colleagues across the aisle continue to refuse to come to the table—we are doing everything we can to help.
My office will be hosting a resource fair this Friday, November 7th! Please stop by!
Happy Election Day, everyone! You truly could not have scripted a more villainous group of people serving at the highest levels—who are literally trying to take food away from millions of children. Democracy is a practice! Make sure your voice is heard! ❤️🤍💙
While Trump and the GOP are throwing lavish parties and sending billions to other countries, Americans are ready for leaders who listen, who care, and who know what it’s like to work hard to put food on the table and care for their families.
This Election Day, Americans will vote for those leaders.
Our food banks are keeping NM fed! If you need help with food, clothing, children’s items or anything else—please know there are amazing resources available like Storehouse West food bank in Rio Rancho and Sandoval County to help!
We are so grateful for leaders like Joe and Katy at Storehouse West!

New Mexico, tomorrow is Election Day! Polls are open from 7am – 7pm tomorrow.
One of the most powerful things you can do right now is make your voice heard and cast your vote! Let’s do this! 💪
This is a huge victory for the American people after the Administration and the GOP tried to withhold food from 42 million people. The courts have spoken—they will release the funds.
It’s Day 34 of the Shutdown, and Trump is CHOOSING to withhold food from 42 million Americans.
Meanwhile, he’s building a gilded ballroom and threw a lavish Great Gatsby party at his private club for himself and his billionaire friends. This is a “let them eat cake” moment if there ever was one.
Happy Halloween everyone! I hope you all found some time today for joy, to relax, and to spend time with loved ones—even in these tumultuous times! Sending you all so much love on this Halloween weekend from Albuquerque! 🎃
They 👏 are 👏 breaking 👏 the 👏 law.
Two judges have just ordered that the Trump Administration must release funds for SNAP benefits. The GOP and Admin trying to use hungry kids as political leverage is beyond morally reprehensible. And it’s against the law.
This is undemocratic. For over 40 days, the U.S. House of Representatives has been out of session—votes cancelled, refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, refusing to recognize democrats, and refusing to negotiate to reopen the government, feed children, and fix healthcare. We are fighting back!
SNAP provides ~$6 a day—which is just enough to help keep families from going hungry, but never enough to get ahead. If funds don’t go out, millions will wake up Saturday without money for groceries.
This can be averted. Trump’s USDA must release contingency funds already approved by Congress!
Hunger is a policy choice.
From our SNAP Back Act in the House, to the Senate, to our Governor & State Legislature, to our Attorney General and food banks, we are working on all fronts to make sure New Mexicans can put food on the table as this food crisis is being manufactured by the White House.
I think this tells you what you need to know about who is blocking food to American families and keeping the government shut down. ⬇️
Letting 42 million Americans go without food this weekend—half of whom are children—is WRONG and a CHOICE.
The funds are there, but the White House is trying to leverage hungry kids for a political agenda. Mr. President, American lives are not a political game, and we are not here to play.
In case I’ve not made myself clear—no family in America should go hungry. Period.
Trump’s decision to withhold SNAP is unconscionable and immoral. The GOP needs to come back to DC and reopen the government. And the Admin needs to release the funds so families can put food on the table on Saturday.
Let’s be clear here—Trump has the funds to ensure 42 million Americans don’t lose access to SNAP benefits on Saturday. But, they are CHOOSING to let Americans starve.
That’s why I introduced the SNAP BACK Act today—to ensure families are fed.
We will not let Americans starve.
Cutting off food for children, elders, and veterans is wrong. Period.
That’s why we’re here fighting back. ⬇️
Just flew in from Albuquerque and had to come down to see the White House for myself.
As our communities are facing a crisis—Trump is CHOOSING to cut off food assistance to 40 million Americans—while building a $300 million ballroom for himself.
Cruelty is the point.
