House Bill 49 would strengthen penalties for felons illegally possessing firearms. We need tougher sentences to deter repeat offenders who repeatedly flout the law and inflict violence on others. Please call your lawmakers and ask them to support HB 49.

Like most Americans, I am horrified by the killing of U.S. citizens by ICE agents in Minneapolis in recent days. The death of Alex Jeffrey Pretti — a 37-year-old ICU nurse — on Saturday demands a thorough and independent investigation to ensure accountability.

Great news—Moody’s just upgraded NM to one of the highest bond ratings in the nation! That means lower interest rates and potentially millions in savings for NM taxpayers. Turns out that years of smart budgeting, planning and disciplined leadership pays off.
