New Mexico’s malpractice crisis is real.
Hospitals are losing doctors faster than they can replace them, and patients are paying the price. Lawmakers now call it one of our biggest healthcare challenges.

I’ve always loved football and basketball, but rarely watched baseball. This World Series completely changed that what an incredible matchup! Huge congrats to the Dodgers on back-to-back titles and to the Blue Jays for an amazing run. Truly great baseball from both teams. ⚾️

SNAP is one of America’s most successful programs against hunger. It began in the 1960s so families wouldn’t have to choose between rent and food. Today it helps millions put real meals on the table.

Sam doesn’t want to debate me, because he knows I’m right about medical malpractice reform. He’s supporting the medical malpractice attorneys!😞
Why does AG Bregman want to debate only Secretary Haaland but not you, Mayor Miyagishima?
a) He can't count as high as 3.
b) He has never heard of Las Cruces.
c) He is being cynically disingenuous.

I’ll debate you Sam, and Deb can join us. Let’s do three debates before the end of the year. ABQ, Santa Fe and Las Cruces, I can get it arranged. “Don’t Back Down”! 😊
There are *THREE* candidates for the Democratic nomination for Governor! Bregman thinks he is clever by challenging only @DebHaalandnm.bsky.social to a debate and ignoring @KenMiyagishima.bsky.social. Deb Haaland is CORRECT to not even dignify this dishonest challenge with a response. #NeverBregman
