The Smithsonian does not belong to the President or a political party. It BELONGS TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!
We will not let them rewrite our history! We will fight back in Congress, the Courts, and in our Communities because this is OUR story!

“In a world that can often feel dark be like Nolan. Be a light that brightens the lives of those around you.”
Absolutely devastating. 💔 Sending love, strength and prayers to the family and loved ones of Nolan Wells. They deserve answers.
It’s already shaping up to be a chaotic week:
-A $95 billion package to fund an illegal war
-SAVE Act attached to a Stock Trading bill
-The Epstein Investigation
-Assaults on our public lands, monuments & Smithsonian
-Standing with teachers & tribal leaders
+so much more…here’s what’s on tap ⬇️
Chaco Canyon is not for sale!
Let’s make our voices loud and clear ⬇️

This November we have to vote like the future of our democracy depends on it.
Because, it does—including here in New Mexico!
Behind every statistic is a mother, a daughter, a sister, a family, and community.
If we're serious about addressing the crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous People, we cannot keep cutting the programs communities rely on. It’s time to stand up for our communities!
The future of our democracy depends on free and fair elections. It is critical that everyone understands what this moment is all about ⬇️
There’s nothing like having our entire team together! This week, our District team joined us in D.C. for planning, connecting, and delivering for New Mexico!
Every day we are so grateful for this team who shows up for New Mexico and delivers with grit, heart, and determination! 💕
Chaco Canyon is sacred—and a living landscape!
Make your voice heard. Chaco Canyon is not for sale. And, we’re fighting like hell to protect it.

Two more American service members’ lives have been lost in a war that never should have happened. My heart & prayers are with their families, loved ones, & all those still missing & injured. 💔
It is long past due for my colleagues across the aisle to stand up and stop this war and end the violence!
Another big week in Congress fighting for New Mexico—from fighting to protect voting rights and human rights to the Smithsonian and Chaco Canyon. We need your voices in this fight!
Here’s the latest. ⬇️
Trump’s demolition of the People’s House is such a metaphor in this moment.
Anyone else find it suspicious that the White House is releasing a bunch of “newly discovered” findings concerning the 2020 election weeks after they conducted mass firings of career intelligence officers? 🙋♀️
But make no mistake—his motives are much more insidious as we head into the November elections—as he seeks to cast doubt over the integrity of our election system.
Which is why we have to continue to organize, mobilize, & vote like the future of our democracy depends on it—because it does.
(2/2)
Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. Period.
And, yet he STILL cannot accept the facts. Tonight he’s poised to address the nation with a replay of his greatest election denialism hits.
(1/2)
DOGE your time is up!
After all the broken promises, chaos, and billions in damages—the final vote is in: America is done. And you have not been chosen to stay. ☀️🏝️💔

Lebanon. Gaza. The West Bank.
We cannot allow American taxpayer dollars to continue to fund the killing of children and civilians abroad. The violence must stop.
This Administration is engaged in the largest criminal cover-up in American history.
Todd Blanche cannot serve as AG. Full stop.
People are afraid to leave their homes. Parents are afraid to take their kids to school. Families are afraid go shopping.
This cannot go on. We cannot allow this country to become a surveillance state. We must hold this Administration accountable.
Lorenzo Salgado Araujo
Joan Sebastian Guerrero
Ruben Ray Martinez

Dozens of other innocent lives.
These deaths aren’t mistakes. They’re the result of choices. Policy choices. Funding choices. Choices to not hold this Administration accountable.
It’s time to SHUT. IT. DOWN!
