At last week’s debate, I proudly pledged to defend your freedom to decide whether and when to grow your own families. My opponent, Republican Ben Luna Jr., dodged the question. When I pushed him to answer, he instead told a harmful lie about our children and public schools.

We are a state of working families. From the chile fields to the oil fields, you power New Mexico. I come from a family of farmers and mechanics. That’s why I’m so excited to have the endorsement of the N.M. Working Families Party. Your advocacy for our people is critical. Thank you!

I’ve known Senator @martinheinrich.com a long time. He’s been a steady defender of immigrants. He helped us raise the minimum wage in Las Cruces. I worked alongside him to create the Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks National Monument. I’m honored to have his support in this year’s election.

Economic development doesn’t just happen at our industrial parks, our construction sites, or our chambers of commerce. It happens at the home of Karla, who employs other women in Chaparral to help educate the kids in that community at daycare.

Chaparral is getting a new public safety facility! When fully built it will include police, firefighters, animal control, and an ambulance bay. I’ve heard your concerns, and I’m working to make things better!

I am writing to invite the developers of Project Jupiter to abandon their plans, pack their things, and leave Doña Ana County for good. I’m serious. As an early supporter of this project because of the jobs and infrastructure it promised, I’m fed up with the dishonesty, broken promises and threats.

Opinion: New Mexico lawmaker who backed Project Jupiter now says developers should leave
