#NewMexico please call senators Heinrich and Lujan to tell them not to trust ANY PROMISE FROM REPUBLICANS FOR ANY REASON AT ANY TIME.
What was the point of the shutdown if ACA subsidies are not extended?

CALL YOUR SENATORS NOW!

It’s Election Day. 🗳️ It’s not a presidential or mid-term election, but don’t be fooled or complacent—these elections absolutely matter. Change comes in all shapes and sizes, from grassroots and the ground up.

Your vote is your voice. Make it heard. Make it count.

Albuquerque, NM Westside Dems: Voter turnout has been pretty low.

Don't cancel out your right to vote. Tomorrow is our last chance to choose city councilors, school board members, and the Mayor of Albuquerque.

Lawmakers are reimbursed up to $79/day for meals and incidentals while in DC. $6 is a drop in the bucket.
SNAP provides ~$6 a day—which is just enough to help keep families from going hungry, but never enough to get ahead. If funds don’t go out, millions will wake up Saturday without money for groceries.

This can be averted. Trump’s USDA must release contingency funds already approved by Congress!

Just astounding. The reason they can shove through 100 Trump nominees at once is because the GOP changed the rules to eliminate the 60-vote requirement. Something they won’t do to fund the government. Yet they blame Dems.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station.

Someone tell this dumbfuck you either embrace naked power in the service of fascism and shrug off the criticism, OR you get to whine about "harsh words" targeting judges. You don't get to do both, dipshit, and you made your choice.

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence.

They are in charge.

A little louder for the Senate Democrats in the back:

The GOP controls the WH, House & Senate.

You will not be responsible for a government shutdown.

We need you to stand up for the American people. If you don’t, we will campaign and donate to Dems who will.

@lujan.senate.gov You need to listen to your messages and clear you mailbox AGAIN! Vote NO on the house CR-filibuster to kill it. It does nothing to protect SS, Medicaid, and Medicare. There are no protections against DOGE. Vote YES on Murray/DeLauro CR instead.

Early this morning, I proposed an amendment to support grants for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault.

Grants Trump blocked.

If you support survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, this should have been an easy yes.

Republicans voted no and killed it.

This administration has convinced half the country that the real problem isn’t the billionaires who evade taxes and collect government handouts, but the working class who pay taxes and get nothing in return.

A huge shout out to @repstansbury.bsky.social, her Albuquerque staff, and AG Torrez for tonight’s town hall phone call. We received some really great updates, answers to our questions, validation, and a much needed boost of positive energy! Thank you so much. I am grateful to call New Mexico home.

I would recommend calling your state’s attorney general and lodging a complaint against a private citizen occupying an illegal and non existent government agency for accessing personal and private data in the most abhorrent of circumstances. Also, file a complaint on line at state AG websites.
