Trump’s latest proposal to gut the U.S. Forest Service isn’t about efficiency—it’s about walking away from the stewardship of our nation’s forests. Fewer firefighters during fire season, less protection for watersheds. Doing so without Congressional approval—that’s why we are fighting back! 🌲

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 12(source)

Vets for Pets is a local nonprofit dedicated to preventing veteran suicide and supporting veterans & pets🐾 We volunteered at their food pantry in the International District and talked to Dr. Finnie Coleman. We are grateful for his leadership and our community partners doing the work on the ground!💕

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 11(source)

Water is life! I’m here in ABQ’s North Valley at one of my favorite acequias to talk about the importance of water to our communities. We’ve got a difficult year ahead with low snowpack, but are working every day to make critical investments in our water infrastructure.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 11(source)

Today is the start of Black Maternal Health Week—a call to action for addressing the health & well-being of Black women who still face maternal health complications at 3X the national average. Proud to be a cosponsor of Rep. Underwood's Momnibus Act—to invest in Black maternal health & well-being!❤️

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 11(source)

It’s time for Congress to do its job—and NOT on the backs of the American people & federal workers. For weeks, we have called for Congress to pass a bipartisan deal that would pay FEMA, TSA, and Coast Guard, but not a penny more to ICE. House Republicans are fighting among themselves.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 11(source)

So proud of our New Mexico companies, scientists, researchers, and institutions that lent a hand in the Artemis II mission. Including Jack’s Plastic Welding that built the recovery rafts right here in NM! 🌊🔭🚀

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 11(source)

Who else is still feeling the joy this morning? 🙋‍♀️🚀🧑‍🚀 THIS is what science can do!!

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 11(source)

The NM Veterans Integration Center is an organization supporting veterans in ABQ and across the state. Help with housing, metal health services, a food pantry, peer support—the VIC is staffed by many who are veterans themselves. To every veteran across NM—know you're not alone. Please reach out.❤️

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 11(source)

Astronauts are officially safe on the ship! Our hearts and cups are full. Thank you Artemis II and NASA for restoring our faith in science and humanity! 💗

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 11(source)

Artemis II is finally home! What an amazing, groundbreaking and inspiring journey! 🥹 Grateful to every scientist, engineer, technician, and the extraordinary crew who made this mission possible. We can’t wait to see all of the amazing science that come from this mission! 🚀❤️

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 10(source)

While we are all excitedly waiting for the Artemis II crew to return, we wanted to share this amazing story about New Mexico’s own Danette Farnsworth, who is the lead engineer for the main navigation flight control, and propulsion systems. We are so proud! #NewMexicoTrue

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 10(source)

Just a reminder—as we’re all reacting to the First Lady’s statement on the Epstein files yesterday. This guy is still serving in the administration.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 10(source)

Protect the Pecos! The Trump Admin is moving to reverse protections for the Upper Pecos Watershed just as they have with Chaco Canyon. This follows years of our communities in NM speaking out and our delegation fighting to protect this area. We must keep fighting to protect the Pecos Watershed!

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 10(source)

We welcome the First Lady’s call for action and transparency in the Epstein case. But, that begins at home with the President and his DOJ’s cover-up in this case. Survivors have told their stories, it's now time to prosecute, including the acting and former AG.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 10(source)

The Epstein survivors have told their stories—and the justice system has failed them. We subpoenaed the files and passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Pam Bondi and those who have covered up this case must be held accountable. Congress must act—to turn the Epstein files into Epstein trials.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 9(source)

Happy 54th Birthday #BalloonFiesta! 🎈✨ From its humble beginnings in April of 1972 to becoming the largest balloon gathering in the world every Oct—the ABQ International Balloon Fiesta is the pride, joy, and heart of our community. Here’s to keeping the wonder and magic alive! ❤️

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 9(source)

It *is* time for Congress to act on the Epstein case. On this point, we agree with the First Lady.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 9(source)

As the crew of Artemis II heads back to Earth—we want to share our piece of the moon—YES THE REAL MOON! Collected by NM Astronaut Dr. Harrison Schmitt, this moon rock at the NM Museum of Natural History was collected during Apollo 17 in 1972. Join us to talk what connects us across time! 🚀🧑‍🚀🌛

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 9(source)

13 service members killed Over 300 with severe injuries Thousands of civilians dead Over a million people displaced Bombs still being dropped And over $40 billion spent And for what? It is time for Trump and Hegseth to go. ⬇️

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01)@repstansbury.bsky.socialApr 8(source)

Today, the AG’s office tried to inform the Oversight Committee that Pam Bondi would not appear for her deposition. I hope she is ready to face contempt. Otherwise, we look forward to seeing you at your deposition. AG or not—those responsible will be held accountable. Survivors deserve justice.
