Ages 0-4 are the most important, emotionally & intellectually, in human development.

Congratulations to New Mexico for leading the way forward for high quality, free child care. Other states must follow.

Not shocked the dweeb who ran a kidnapping-based canvassing program for Trump can't conceive of actual grassroots energy.

It’s starting. This happened Friday- border patrol boarded and harassed the Las Cruces High swim team on their way to a meet.

Cowardly and unacceptable, going after kids.

The sense of entitlement here is astounding - after stealing from the university and completely abusing his position. This is corruption. 🤯

AG Torrez’ response: Not today 🔥🔥🔥
Western New Mexico University’s former president is asking a court to dismiss a lawsuit by the state Department of Justice targeting his lucrative severance package.

This case is a good one for peppery language in court filings. 🥊
