From every corner of the country, Dems showed up for work—traveling long days to do our jobs, to reopen the government, to save healthcare, to support our communities, and to save our democracy. Because, that is what we do. But, where are our GOP colleagues? Nowhere to be found.

It’s Tuesday afternoon, around 4 pm – and there is literally no one here in the House of Representatives. Not a soul on what should be a busy day.
And, why? Because the GOP has shut it down. Literally.
I’m holding a virtual Town Hall TOMORROW at 5:30 pm MT to answer all of your shutdown questions, and give you the latest on what’s happening in D.C.
I’ll be streaming on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter. Join me!
A little pep talk as we head back to DC this morning. I know it’s scary and overwhelming watching what’s happening right now—but history tells us we must keep showing up and doing our part—which is why I’m headed back to DC today!
A truly joyful several days in NM—seeing our Legislature pass critical legislation to protect New Mexicans—and spending time in our communities, hearing from federal workers and communities, and supporting our food banks. This is energy we need to fuel our fight as we head back to DC!
As the sun sets on this beautiful Fall day in NM—I’m gearing up to head back to DC in the morning for the continued fight to reopen the government, protect our healthcare, and support our federal workers. Grateful to be surrounded this weekend by the things that remind us what we’re fighting for. ❤️
At our town hall on Friday, hundreds turned out asking the same questions we're all asking: Will we get paid? Will we keep our healthcare? Will our democracy survive this chaos?
I hear you. I see you. And that is why we are fighting to protect our democracy and our communities.
Didn’t make it to our government shutdown Town Hall on Friday? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.
You can watch the livestream here:
Happy World Teacher Day! Today, we honor the incredible educators who nurture young minds and shape their future.
They show up every day for our kids, so we must show up for them. That means fighting for fair pay, safe schools, and the resources every classroom needs to thrive.
This is what democracy looks like! Thank you to everyone who came out to our Town Hall on Friday to ask questions, share concerns, and take part in our democracy.
Thank you to all of our legislators who are on the front lines to protect our communities. We will get through this shutdown—together. 💗
It’s Balloon Fiesta time—and we’re ready for our first Balloon Glow!! If you know you know!!
And, if you don’t, you gotta get down here and see it for yourselves! #BalloonFiesta #NewMexico #NewMexicoTrue
The American people are smart. They know when they’re being lied to.
Republicans canceled votes, shut down the House, locked the doors, and are refusing to negotiate.
We’re ready to work. Let’s do this, GOP—reopen the House!
We’re in the midst of a government shutdown, and millions could lose access to healthcare and see their monthly insurance go THROUGH THE ROOF!
Why? Trump and the GOP want to “maximize pain” and keep the government shut down.
Healthcare is a human right. We need universal healthcare for all! Now.

@repstansbury.bsky.social: GOP “lying in the faces of the American people'” about government shutdown
It’s Day 4 of the shutdown, and yesterday we volunteered at the food bank.
We understand we have to take care of our families and communities in NM, which is why extending food assistance was such a focus in the Special Session that our Legislature just wrapped up. Here’s what we are doing. ⬇️
Just left our Town Hall in Downtown Albuquerque, where we had hundreds join to share their thoughts, questions, and concerns about the shutdown and everything else happening right now.
Grateful to the State Leaders who came out tonight. We are #NewMexicoStrong #NewMexicoTrue 💕
Starting now! We’re also live streaming on YouTube: youtube.com/@repstansbur...
“At least you know exactly who your friends are. They're the ones with matching scars.”
Feels very right for this moment.
We see you, Taylor Swift. #TheLifeofaCongresswoman
NM State House Speaker Javier Martinez and members of the New Mexico Legislature will be joining us at our Town Hall!
RSVP here: forms.office.com/g/hRza1grkPZ
Can't make it in person? We'll be live-streaming on YouTube!
🚨 Some amazing news! 🚨 Our Legislature just gaveled out in a historic Special Session to shore up healthcare, food assistance, and public broadcasting funding in New Mexico! I'm so proud to have made it home in time to see the final bill pass!
