Trump is moving to repeal the Roadless Rule which protects 44 million acres of our public lands & forests. These are places where we go to hike, hunt, work, and pray.
There 30 days speak up and save some of our most treasured lands. Submit YOUR public comment here: www.fs.usda.gov/managing-lan...
Happy first week of school UNM! We had the best time at Welcome Back Days and the PT School yesterday. Excited to see what the year and your journeys bring. One thing is certain—the future is bright!
Cheers to an amazing year! Go Lobos!
Happy back-to-school everyone! It is back-to-school days here at UNM and we’re here with Marisa, the president of the Graduate and Professional Student Association to say welcome back and encourage everyone to come out today! 🐺❤️🐾
Housing is a human right! Yesterday we announced $7.6 million dollars in funding for affordable housing and projects to support families, seniors and young people experiencing homelessness
This is what it looks like to invest in our communities and transform lives! 🏠🌳💕
It is inhumane, unjust, and wrong. This Administration is out of control. And we must continue to fight to protect our neighbors and ensure our communities are safe using every tool we have.

This. Is. Unacceptable.
No child should ever experience this terror, no person should fear seeking medical care, no parent should fear sending their kids to school, going to a place of worship, or simply living their lives.

Republicans have written 2 blank checks to ICE, giving them billions with 0 accountability, even after they gunned down civilians with impunity.
Now they’re spending $20 million of OUR taxpayer dollars to inflict more terror on our communities.
Time to SHUT. THIS. DOWN!
Even President Trump agrees: Voting by mail is SAFE and SECURE! Thank you for your attention to this matter.
A shout-out to all the artists and creatives out there across our communities sharing their art and creativity these last few weeks! Art is joy. Art is resistance! ✊🎨💕
But, that fight isn’t over—as the President and his allies still try to pass the SAVE Act and roll back the Voting Rights Act.
But, we will not go back! We’re fighting back in Congress, the courts, and our communities to ensure every American & every woman has access to the ballot box!💪🗳️💕

Happy 19th Amendment Day!
Today we honor the generations of women who fought for the right to vote—by organizing, marching, protesting, demanding equal rights, and—yes running for office!

As 1st in the US for state investment in homegrown science & tech startups, NM State Investment Council & NM Economic Development Department are leading investments in innovation while our communities fuel the science & tech that’s transforming the future! Amazing to see these projects come to life!
Once again, New Mexico is leading the way in science & tech! From a new quantum innovation hub in ABQ that will host nearly a dozen quantum startups to a $4 billion investment by Intel in its only U.S. advanced packaging facility right here in Rio Rancho—NM is leading the science & tech revolution!
Another huge week here in the district:
🌶️ Chile roasting and small businesses
🔬 Science & tech
🎤 Town halls & tours
🐺 Back to school at UNM
🏠 Affordable housing
🌱 Fighting for our farmers and water
🎉 50th anniversary of the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center
Come out to see us and say hi!
Duranes Early Childhood Center is bringing preschool, special ed, and critical family services—including help with healthcare, housing, and employment—together under one roof.
When we invest in our kids and families, we invest in New Mexico and our future!
Happy first day of school to our UNM Lobos! From our first-year students, graduating seniors, grad and doctoral students, and everything in between—I hope you have the best year ever at UNM! We’ll see you later this week!
Everyone’s a Lobo, woof woof woof! 🐺🐾❤️
Water is life in New Mexico and our water supply is changing!
We cannot build New Mexico’s (or the West’s) future without taking that into consideration. The science is clear. We need to invest in water infrastructure, support rural and tribal communities, and keep pushing forward!
What a week it’s been! From town halls to feast days, fiestas, and first days of school, visits to the chamber of commerce, local start ups, food banks, and animal shelter. Meetings with Tribal leaders, mayors, city and county leaders. Economic development, science and tech, and the arts.
(1/2)
We’ve been talking Tribal sovereignty, economic development, investments in science and technology, protecting our lands and waters, and so much more.
If you’re out and about come say hi and join us this week for our town halls, coffees and community events & have a beautiful weekend!
