BIG UPDATE: our fight to keep public lands in public hands continues!
We have to pass my ‘No Payola’ bill to make sure Republican Senators don’t get millionaire payouts while Americans can’t afford health care.

Epstein told young victims he would get away with his cruelty because he controlled the banks and the government.

Today, the House must prove him wrong and the Senate must do the same tomorrow.

Once again, watch Republicans refuse to support my amendment that would stop their own senators from collecting millions in taxpayer dollars AND require those who already have to return that money to the American people.

Democrats: *Trying to make healthcare more affordable for the American people*

Republicans: sOciALIsM!!!!!

Our neighbors who lost homes, land, and livelihoods to the Hermits Peak - Calf Canyon Fire deserve better. FEMA must honor its responsibilities with transparency, urgency, and respect for the families still waiting for compensation.

Lindsey Graham wants YOU to pay him at least $500,000 because his phone records were lawfully subpoenaed for Trump’s attempt to overturn the election.

Families can’t afford groceries—and he wants a cash reward for being part of Trump’s effort to overturn an election?

During the government shutdown, I wanted to make sure I connected with as many of the people I represent as possible. Earlier this week, before being called back to D.C. for votes, I traveled to Clovis to listen directly to constituents and learn more about the issues impacting their community.

We won’t stop fighting for affordable healthcare for the women, children, and families of America.

My team is hosting an in-person RECA workshop in Gallup today. Don’t miss it!

I proposed an amendment to block Republicans from funneling millions of taxpayer dollars to Senators subpoenaed for January 6th. Watch how every Republican on the Rules Committee lacked the courage to intervene.
November 13, 2025 at 12:17 AM
This is just the tip of the iceberg. Trump is in the files and we will make sure every American knows.
November 12, 2025 at 6:14 PM
Republicans shut down the government and Trump is literally starving Americans because they don’t want families to have affordable health care. They prefer misery over mercy.
November 10, 2025 at 3:57 AM
Trump has cut everything that the people we love depend on for survival. This is cruel corruption.

Federal workers aren’t getting paid and neither am I.

We’re all in this boat together.

Republicans could end this by opening the government and protecting affordable healthcare.

It shouldn’t take a court ruling for the Trump administration to agree to feed Americans in need.

The courts agree: no matter how hard he tries, Trump cannot use hunger as a political tool—it’s illegal and cruel.

Judge orders Trump administration to pay SNAP benefits with emergency funds
A federal judge on Friday blocked the Trump administration from cutting off the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) beginning this weekend because of the government shutdown,…

The officers who keep us safe shouldn’t have to work without pay. Republicans MUST come back to work and reopen the government. For now, we’ll at least share a meal and thank them for their work.
October 31, 2025 at 3:27 PM
Our healthcare system is already broken. Instead of fixing it, Republicans want to take a hammer to the parts that actually help working Americans.
October 30, 2025 at 7:44 PM
🚨BREAKING: New Mexico just announced we will be using $30 Million in state funds to make sure people don’t go hungry on November 1st.
October 30, 2025 at 6:01 PM
All we’re asking for is bipartisanship — an agreement where you both sit down and work something out. It’s a simple proposition.
October 29, 2025 at 6:48 PM
Donald Trump is sitting on $5 billion in House-appropriated funds meant to help feed Americans. Why is he letting people go hungry?
October 29, 2025 at 4:44 PM
Imagine your monthly healthcare costs jumping from $3.91 to $973. Shelly is one of millions of Americans facing this kind of drastic increase under Republican healthcare policies.

We won’t stop speaking out against this cruelty.
October 24, 2025 at 7:17 PM
Sharing your stories of how the Republican shutdown is affecting you and your families is one of the most powerful actions we can take right now. I’m grateful to every constituent who has spoken up and shared their story with me.
