Asylum is a human right.
The Supreme Court just gave the Trump Administration the green light to strip protections from hundreds of thousands of people seeking refuge from war, violence, and persecution.
Sending families back into danger is not justice. It's cruelty masquerading as policy.

We’re demanding answers from the Drug Enforcement Administration after reports that federal agents knowingly allowed fentanyl pills onto our streets as part of larger investigations. ⬇️
@fernandez.house.gov @repgabevasquez.bsky.social
We have to ask: is this really about waste, fraud, and abuse—or just another attempt to take food out of the mouths of our children?
In one of the wealthiest countries on earth, no child should go hungry. Period.
I don’t know who did this—but it wins the internet! … And, it may explain what’s happening at the Reflecting Pool.
Ok so let me get this straight, Congress votes to end your illegal war and you:
(a) Completely disregard Congress
(b) Come back asking for more $$
(c) Throw in another vanity project you’re trying to put your name on
(d) All of the Above, if you’re DJT
Friends, they’re not even trying to hide their voter suppression. ⬇️
Four years ago, SCOTUS stripped away protection of the fundamental right of women to make decisions about their own bodies in the Dobbs Decision. Since then, millions have faced barriers to care—some paying that cost with their lives.
We will continue fighting to restore these rights into law.
This is a moral moment for America. Here in the People’s House, we have a choice.
Do we choose war and suffering, or do we choose peace and human dignity? In Iran. In Lebanon. In Gaza.
I choose peace.
I choose human dignity.
I choose the children of the world.
We stand with @replamonica.bsky.social today and every day!
Just moments ago the President was supposed to sign a bipartisan housing bill here in the capital.
Except, in a bizarre chapter, he didn’t and is a no show—because he says he’s mad at the Senate. Here’s what’s happening ⬇️👀
It’s time to end this illegal war!
Water is life in New Mexico. And, as drought worsens and snowpack declines across the West, we must invest in the infrastructure and resources our communities need to thrive. Our farmers, Pueblos, acequias, and local communities are counting on us.
The stakes could not be higher—as the Admin has turned MAHA into a platform for cuts, corruption, and corporate giveaways.
The consequences are real. And, Americans are paying the price. ⬇️
One year ago Republicans passed a Big Ugly Bill that cut healthcare, food assistance, & education.
770,000 children are without access to food and the U.S. is seeing the highest rates of hunger since before the pandemic.
Children without access to food because of Trump & this Republican Congress.
Dreamers are woven into the fabric of our lives & our communities all across the country. Many are now facing unacceptable delays in DACA renewals.
If your DACA renewal window is approaching, please renew as early as possible.
It’s time for Congress to provide permanent protections for Dreamers.
Hope is a call to action.
Change is a call to action.
Resilience is a call to action.
And, just being you is powerful.
Happy Pride New Mexico! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
It was such an honor to celebrate alongside you this weekend at the Draggies!
What we need is for DOJ to:
DO 👏 ITS 👏 JOB! 👏
#ReleaseTheFiles
NM is showing what's possible when you invest in universal childcare. But now we must ensure our childcare workers earn a living wage!
For too long, childcare workers have been asked to do essential work for inadequate pay. They deserve wages that reflect the value & importance of their work!
Happy Monday! I'm officially on my way back to DC for a truly crazy week. Here’s what’s going on! ⬇️
Nothing beats being back home in New Mexico! ❤️
As I head back to DC, here are a few special moments across NM-01 and our trip to the Obama Center Opening this week. So grateful to be out and about with our community!
