This is what the Trump administration is trying to turn the Chama and Carson National Forest into: uranium-mining pits. Who stands with me in saying “hell no” to letting the Trump administration sell off our public lands to the highest bidder?

I took this photo a year ago when Senate Democrats were on the floor for nearly 24 hours straight, fighting back against President Trump’s Budget Betrayal. Congressional Republicans weren’t working for the American people that day – only billionaires and large corporations.

Happy Fourth of July, New Mexico! 🇺🇸 As we celebrate 250 years of independence, let's remember that America's story has always been one of choosing freedom over tyranny and democracy over kings. We've come too far to go back.

I had the opportunity to sit down with Matthew Bernabe, a local business owner who truly embodies what it means to serve our communities. Time and time again, Matt has stepped up to make sure New Mexican kids and families have food when they need it most. New Mexico is stronger

Today’s jobs report shows the economy is slowing. Trump boasting about his wealth just shows how out of touch he is.

President Trump and Congressional Republicans refused to extend ACA tax credits, and now 3 million Americans have been priced out of their health care. They don't care about making health care affordable. They care about protecting wealthy donors and corporate interests.
Millions drop ACA coverage amid price jump. Did fraud inflate signups?

President Trump's war with Iran that no one wanted has already cost Americans roughly $1,000 through higher fuel prices, food costs, and everyday expenses. New Mexicans are working hard to pay for college, buy their first home, and save for retirement. They shouldn't have to
