Thank you President Biden for signing the major disaster declaration submitted by Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham for the wildfires in our state.  This means more support and resources for the first responders working to stop the fires, and for communities that need immediate help. #NewMexicoStrong

In times of need, New Mexicans show up for each other. This is a great resource from @KRQE for anyone who wants to help those impacted by the fires. krqe.com/news/wildfires…

“It comes down to making sure our state’s record revenues are working for all New Mexicans in the short and in the long term.” - HAFC Chair Nathan P Small on the transformational investments in NM’s FY25 budget, which goes into effect today. abqjournal.com/business/new-f…

As we gather with family and friends today to celebrate our many freedoms, we must also commit to continuing the important work of upholding our democracy and building upon its promise. 🇺🇲🎆✊🏽

Shocked and appalled by the violence at the rally in Butler, PA today. We must stand together as a nation to condemn political violence in all its forms.

On Monday, Speaker Speaker Javier Martínez & legislative leaders warned against proceeding with flawed bills in a special session. “We have deep concerns about the potential impact these proposals will have on New Mexicans, especially the most vulnerable among us.”  kunm.org/local-news/202…

Yesterday, rather than ram through problematic policies, Dem lawmakers stood together to pass a bipartisan bill to expand access to treatment for behavioral healthcare across the state and delivered relief to communities devastated by wildfires. abqjournal.com/news/lawmakers…

The legislature is a separate & equal branch of government, with a responsibility to consider the impact policies have on NM families. Our focus is on fighting until everyone in our state feels safe & gets help when they need it, not grabbing headlines. abqjournal.com/opinion/opinio…

Today, we honor Miguel Trujillo, a trailblazer for Native American voting rights. His courage and persistence paved the way for justice and equality. We remember his legacy and continue to fight for the rights he championed.

Grateful to see the funding Meredith Dixon for NM House District 20 & I secured last session to clear the felony warrant backlog has led to more than 1,600 arrests for serious crimes. Thank you to Bernalillo County District Attorney Sam Bregman & officers for your hard work to improve the safety of our communities. ladailypost.com/new-mexico-fel…

All labor has dignity. Thank you to all the hardworking folks who move our state forward every day! Happy Labor Day, New Mexico! 💪🏽

The women of NM House Democrats know how to get things done! 💪🏽 The unprecedented $125 million housing fund sponsored by Reps. Serrato, Meredith Dixon for NM House District 20,  & Representative Joy Garratt, NM HD29 is now up & running! This will help NM build more affordable homes for working families.🏠 nmfinance.com/opportunity-en…

House Democrats are committed to making sure every New Mexican gets the quality healthcare they deserve. The budget that took effect in July dedicates millions to recruiting and retaining providers, especially in rural areas, and reducing out-of-pocket costs for care.
