My grandparents survived the terrible abuse of the Federal Indian Boarding School Era. That trauma wasn't isolated to the past—it was carried down through my family all the way to me. And there are so many families like my own across Indian Country.

I'm 35 years sober. I've lived this fight. You can count on me to give New Mexico the resources to go after drug traffickers, hold insurance companies accountable for covering treatment, and address the root causes of crime.

There’s nothing like green chile season in New Mexico. 💚🌶️ No matter where you are, the smell of green chile in the air is home. I may be a red chile fan, too, but when green chile season comes around, it’s hard to beat.

I have fought for New Mexico’s water, land, and communities my whole career, and I always will. I support a moratorium on data centers until clear and transparent accountability measures are adopted. New Mexicans deserve a voice in protecting the resources that make our state home.

I come from a military family. I know the sacrifices our service members and their loved ones make for this country. We made a promise to these families and now Trump is tearing those families apart.  Our military families should not be subject to Trump’s cruel immigration agenda.

Eighty-one years later, New Mexico families are still paying the price for the legacy of the Trinity Test. As governor, I’ll continue fighting alongside the Tularosa Downwinders so they receive the compensation we fought for, and ensure the state provides support to the families who need it most.

New Mexicans need a raise. Plain and simple. Right now, the state minimum wage is $12/hr. That is not enough to support a family or make ends meet. As governor, I’ll implement an ongoing adjustment of the minimum wage so our families don’t get buried in rising costs.
