This #WorkforceDevelopmentMonth and every month, I am proud to support programs like Job Corps, CNM Workforce training center, Labor Union apprenticeship and training programs, and NM State Workforce Development programs, that ensure our communities have opportunities to build their futures on!
You heard it here. Former U.S. Attorney and Trump Cabinet Secretary Alex Acosta—yes, THE Alex Acosta who gave Epstein a sweetheart deal—says that the White House has the authority to release the files. Folks, this is a cover-up, plain as day, and we won’t stop until every survivor gets justice.
Apparently, the testimony of 40 minors was not enough to convince then U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta (later a Trump appointee) to prosecute Jeffrey Epstein. This is one of the biggest cover-ups of our generation. @oversightdemocrats.house.gov won't stop until the truth comes to light.
The Epstein Investigation. The sweetheart deal that let him to continue to commit crimes. The U.S. Attorney who did not prosecute. And the Administration’s cover-up of the whole thing. Not to mention a government shutdown. The budget. Crazy Oversight hearings. Our work this week on Capitol Hill! ⬇️
Unemployment Inflation Housing costs Food costs Healthcare shortages … all skyrocketing, and our communities are paying the price. This is Donald Trump’s America. This is the economy he created. We’re here to reclaim our country and economy to ensure the working people of this country can thrive.
As Vice-Chair of the Congressional Native American Caucus—I am honored to work with Tribal leaders to protect Tribal sovereignty, funding, and rights. We are on the frontlines working with Indigenous communities, and this is just the start. We’re not backing down!
The Epstein Investigation is so much bigger than you can imagine. It is not only about justice for survivors—it is also about the institutions and systems that protected rich and powerful men they knew were abusing women and children: the banks, the government agencies, and other powerful people.
Violence is never the answer. But neither is silence. The foundation of our democracy was forged in the crucible of debate & the idea that our voices are our most powerful tool. History will remember those who spoke up & worked to protect our democracy and bend the arc of history towards justice.
DOGE is back, & what is the GOP up to? Rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse? No, they’re using DOGE to platform climate denialism and anti-science theories. If they want to talk about climate and weather programs, I’m game. Let’s talk science, facts, and why we need real action.
Happy Monday! I am back in D.C. after a busy but wonderful weekend at home in NM. So much on tap this week, from DOGE to a critical deposition in the Epstein investigation to a looming government shutdown, here’s everything going down. ⬇️
Happy Hispanic Heritage Month, New Mexico! Hispanic heritage is so deeply woven into the fabric of our lives in NM and shapes who we are every single day. I am grateful to have been raised in a place that celebrates tradition, culture, language, and the importance of community. ❤️💛
This #SuicidePreventionWeek, I want to remind everyone that mental health matters, and nobody is alone. Call or text 988 to reach the Suicide and Crisis line. In NM, you can also call 1-855-NMCRISIS. If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out—help is here, and your life matters.
It is with deep gratitude and a heavy heart that we honored the life and legacy of Senator Fred Harris. His legacy lives on through the students he inspired, the lives he touched, and the justice he fought for every day. May we carry forward his vision for a more just and equitable world. 🕊️❤️
Some awesome news here in NM this week. We became the first state in the country to guarantee free, UNIVERSAL childcare for ALL families! And, our Creamland Dairy workers and Teamsters Local 492 reached a labor deal ending their strike! This is what pro-family, pro-worker policies look like!
