BIG UPDATE: our fight to keep public lands in public hands continues!
The light must always win.

My office is here to help with any issue you have with a federal agency.

This year we saved New Mexicans millions of dollars.

This is how a government for the people by the people works.

Arthur Sze has carried New Mexico’s light across the world, and now he carries it as the 25th U.S. Poet Laureate.

May his words deliver us tolerance, connection, and understanding.

Felicidades Arthur.

🚨🚰 ATTENTION MORA, SAN MIGUEL, AND TAOS COUNTIES:

If you live within one mile of the Hermitt’s Peak/Calf Canyon Fire burn scar, please get your wells tested to make sure no dangerous metals have seeped into the water you’re drinking. It’s free!

The NDAA this year was far from perfect—that’s what bipartisan compromise looks like nowadays—but here’s what I voted for:

Americans’ healthcare premiums will skyrocket in 22 days, but Republicans are just now getting out their whiteboard to brainstorm ideas.

The quickest to give real relief today is to extend the tax credits—it’s that easy.

Trump’s Big "Beautiful" Bill is hurting New Mexico’s revenue, just as we predicted.

Republicans prioritizing the biggest corporations over regular New Mexicans once again.

Of course it’s not enough. Farmers want to farm, not get handouts after Trump wrecks their living.

This is a bad trade, not aid.

And remember, Trump gave Argentina $40 billion and their farmers are selling the soybeans American farmers can’t sell.

⏰ 23 days left before ACA tax credits expire and 22 million Americans see their premiums skyrocket.

4 REPUBLICANS. That’s all we need to join us to save Americans from Trump’s healthcare crisis.

Trump’s 2025 Wrapped: Wish we could’ve skipped a few tracks.

What a joy to be in Santo Domingo Pueblo today to celebrate the opening of their new Early Child Care Center.

This is what’s possible when tribal, local, state, and federal partners unite to invest in families.

The Trump administration is only spreading fear and misinformation with this decision.

There are decades of research that prove vaccines are safe and effective. Do not let their fear mongering determine your children’s health.

This season, families should be celebrating — not carrying the cost of Trump’s reckless trade war. Small businesses are struggling to stay afloat, and prices keep climbing. It’s time for an economy that supports holiday traditions, instead of making them harder.

These families fear the water in their own homes. FEMA must make sure survivors receive the support and compensation they need to stay safe. I will keep fighting for clean water and justice for our communities.

College athletes deserve real protections — not a bill that hands even more power to the NCAA.
That’s why we need to ensure the SCORE Act includes transparency on Title IX compliance and protections for women athletes, along with real accountability.

The first atomic bomb was dropped right here in New Mexico. Its radiation spread across our state, and countless families have suffered from cancer, illness, and loss because of that legacy.

Small Business Saturday is a great time to do some holiday shopping and support your local economy.

I stopped by Obscura Gallery in Santa Fe to see their wonderful collection of artwork. When we invest in local businesses we invest in our community.

This Thanksgiving, we reflect on Lincoln’s hope that our nation might heal and find unity after deep division.

Let his words remind us that our greatest strength comes from empathy and compassion — which we must show for all our neighbors.

Wishing everyone a safe and peaceful Thanksgiving.

The National Guard members respond when called. Our hearts weep for the two Guard members who were shot — we weep with their families, their state, and their nation.

Have you gone to the supermarket yet? How much more is your Thanksgiving dinner going to cost this year?
November 24, 2025 at 9:35 PM
Trump gets his gold ballroom while hard working Americans struggle to keep the lights on at home.

His temper tariffs and greed have led us here.
November 23, 2025 at 7:15 PM
In times like these, joy is resistance. Community is the one thing they can’t take from us. When we come together, listen deeply, and choose hope, we build the future New Mexicans deserve.

I voted to repeal the corrupt Senate “Payola” scheme. Now the Senate must repeal it immediately.

FEMA must read the contamination reports and face the facts: this isn’t “naturally occurring.” 55+ wells contaminated with arsenic, manganese, antimony—heavy metals likely tied to a fire started by the federal government.
