10,000 kids in New Mexico are already going hungry thanks to Trump. While hard working families can’t afford groceries, Trump gave billionaires a $2.3 trillion tax cut in the same bill. Shame. sourcenm.com/2026/07/22/m...

This is a Trojan Horse with the SAVE Act tucked inside a bill that lets members keep stocks, sell stocks, get more stocks and doesn’t put any limits on a corrupt President who made billions from stock and crypto trading.
Instead of fighting corruption, Republicans introduced a FAKE stock trading ban in the Rules Committee. Let’s stop playing games and vote on a real ban. Democrats have a bill that would actually stop insider trading in Congress.
Trump doesn’t care about you or your needs. He’s still mad that he lost the election in 2020. Trump knows Americans are tired of high prices & forever wars so instead of changing policy he wants to change our democracy — purge elegible voters, push a voter suppression bill & scare you.

🚨 BREAKING: The Trump admin is proposing to revoke the 10-mile withdrawal around Chaco Canyon. Sec Burgum gave me his word that he would send an official with decision-making authority to conduct in-person, individual tribal consultation with each tribe that has an interest in Chaco. He has not.
Trump’s terror regime just took a second life this month. A month ago, Republicans gave ICE $70 billion more so they could keep killing and terrorizing our communities. We must not accept this as normal.
If your water was contaminated because of the Hermit’s Peak/Calf Canyon fire in Mora, San Miguel, Colfax, Lincoln, or Valencia counties you may qualify for funding to repair your water system or install water treatment equipment.
Do you need help with a federal agency? My office is the WD-40 of the government, we can help unstick issues with Social Security benefits, veteran benefits, tax returns, and more! Stop by walk-in hours tomorrow in Santa Fe.
Republicans shut down Congress with their infighting, but that means I get to go back to beautiful New Mexico, where we believe every American citizen should be able to vote with ease. Thanks for all the birthday messages!
Stage II Fire Restrictions are now in effect across the Santa Fe National Forest. That means no campfires or charcoal fires, no smoking except in designated areas, and limits on equipment that could spark a fire. Let's do our part to keep New Mexico safe. www.fs.usda.gov/r03/santafe/...

Trump is now refusing to sign a bipartisan bill that would increase housing supply and prevent private equity from buying up residential homes. Americans are struggling. We need to pass this bill. He doesn’t care.
Republicans are hoping to pass their TAKING BENEFITS FROM AMERICA'S VETERANS ACT before veterans realize it cuts tens of BILLIONS in future disability benefits, increases VA home-loan fees, expands privatization of VA health care, and hurts them. Let’s make sure everyone knows the truth.
Republicans want to give ICE $70,000,000,000 of YOUR dollars today. The Senate is still voting on the bill. We’ll be fighting like hell in the Rules Committee when we receive it. We’ll keep you updated.
The first U.S. case of New World Screwworm has been confirmed in Texas. New Mexico ranchers are worried. We need to take this threat seriously NOW and do everything we can to protect our livestock, wildlife, and rural communities.
BREAKING: Democrats just forced a vote to end Trump’s war in Iran. It passed. We’re one step closer to peace and lower prices.
They made up an “emergency” to give MORE money to ICE.
Hundreds of ranchers and farmers signed a letter telling Republicans how Trump’s agriculture cuts are hurting them. Today, they’re cutting funding again.
LGBTQ+ New Mexicans have left their mark on our beautiful and beautifully diverse state. This month we celebrate their lives, creativity, and contributions to American culture as well as those of all LGBTQ+ Americans.
While millions of Americans struggle to afford gas and groceries, Trump is focused on illegally building a $1 billion ballroom for his rich friends. I'm joining the legal fight to stop it.
Grateful to spend Memorial Day in community in Española honoring the memory and sacrifice of those who lost everything in the pursuit of a more perfect union.
Indigenous women deserve to live without fear. My bipartisan BADGES for Native Communities Act would improve investigations into missing persons cases and keep communities safe.
Land grants are a unique part of New Mexico’s herencia and cultura. My bill, the New Mexico Land- Grant-Mercedes Historical or Traditional Use Cooperation and Coordination Act, would help preserve that beautiful way of life for generations.
The bill to build the Women’s History Museum had bipartisan support, but Republicans poisoned it. They want to give Trump and his ballroom buddies the power to tell our story.
This week we celebrate 61 years of Head Start and its impact on more than 40 million children, families, and communities. Early childhood education gives our children a strong foundation. That’s an investment in opportunity, American communities, and our future.
Congratulations to our 2026 Congressional Art Competition winner and runner ups! The winning piece will hang in our nation’s Capitol for all visitors to see. What wonderful way to spread New Mexico’s magic.
Caja del Rio is a precious place that brings together the diverse histories of New Mexicans. We stand in awe of a landscape marked by time and tradition. @heinrich.senate.gov and I have introduced a bill to protect the Caja and make it loud and clear that Caja is not for sale.
¡Feliz dia de las madres a todas las mamás de Nuevo Mexico! Mothers are the backbone of our communities. Let’s cherish and protect them. Happy Mother’s Day! ❤️
The Caja matters. We’re fighting to protect it.
