In NM, service is a way of life, and generations of families have worn the uniform. We are working to meet the needs of our veterans, so every veteran can thrive.

Grateful to appear before the Veterans Affairs Committee yesterday to talk about this commitment to service, right before leaving DC. 💙

No community should be forced to bear the weight of a system that profits from human suffering.

Private, for-profit prisons have no place in a fair and free democracy—and especially profiting off the suffering of an inhumane and undemocratic detention system.

Period.

It’s time to ban Congressional stock trading, now!

The American people deserve elected officials who unequivocally represent them, not their stock portfolios.

As the Trump Administration and GOP are trying to dismantle the Department of Education—we stand with our schools, our students, and our teachers!

Department of Ed was born out of the Civil Rights Movement and is as important as ever. We stand with every public school and kid across America! ✊

As I get on a plane this morning to head back to DC—it’s been such a joyful weekend back home giving thanks with family and friends. It’s been an absolutely gorgeous fall—and I wanted to share a few of the moments I’ve been so grateful to experience the last few months. 🌻🍁🦋🌈

Chaco Canyon is sacred ground. That is why we are fighting to protect this place and ask the American people for their help!

So, Congress is on fire 🔥 (or at least the subway) which seems like such a metaphor for the week doesn’t it? ⬇️

Is this America First? Taking away the rights of American Tribal Nations and communities—to prioritize the profits of foreign mining companies?

Here’s what our friends across the aisle had to say. ⬇️
