Speaker Javier Martínez

The Trump administration is refusing to fund SNAP benefits beginning Nov. 1. No family should have to wonder where their next meal is coming from because Republicans are playing political games in Washington, D.C. Fund SNAP now.

This is what democracy looks like! Thank you to everyone who came out to our Town Hall on Friday to ask questions, share your concerns, and take part in our democracy.  Thank you also to NM State House Speaker @JavierForNM, for showing up and all of our legislators who are on the front lines to protect our communities. We will get through this shutdown—together.  💗

While the federal government rolls back access to healthcare, New Mexico is delivering for you. We saw our legislative investments in action at the ribbon cutting for @UNMHospital’s new Critical Care Tower, expanding access to vital care for New Mexicans. kob.com/new-mexico/unm…

As Republicans in DC cause chaos, state Dems are making real and meaningful progress for their constituents on the issues that matter most, like affordability. @JavierForNM

Deacon Steve fought courageously for the poor and the immigrant. When asked how he was doing, his response was always ‘I’m blessed.’ Indeed you were, and so were we for knowing you. Vaya con Dios.

I am saddened to hear of the passing of Deacon Steve Rangel. Deacon Steve, as we called him, was a committed advocate and a champion in our collective work to build a world class early childhood system in New Mexico.

For decades, both my parents worked themselves to the bone to provide my sister and I with opportunities they never had. This Labor Day, as Republicans in D.C. sell out working people, your NM House Dems are continuing the good fight on behalf of ALL hard-working New Mexicans.💪🏽

This year House Democrats successfully pushed for historic, direct investments to expand access to affordable and transitional housing and help address homelessness. Many of these new developments are slated to break ground soon. Stay tuned for more news and updates! 🪏👷🏼‍♂️

Today, we hosted a press conference where DLCC Board Member and New Mexico House Speaker @JavierForNM made it clear: We stand with Texas Dems in their tireless fight against the GOP's desperate and pathetic power grab.

Preliminary revenue projections show that while recent federal funding cuts are expected to reduce state revenues by up to $305 million in FY 2027, New Mexico’s overall outlook remains strong thanks to years of smart budgeting and thoughtful policymaking.

We met with county officials, education leaders, and local journalists, and toured the downtown historic district, including a peek inside the Oppenheimer family home. Stay tuned for our next stop!! 🛣️

Thank you to @Christine4nm for hosting our team last week in Los Alamos! I appreciated learning about the complicated history of this unique community and loved seeing how they are responding and innovating to address today’s challenges.

Heartbreaking. UNM fam, please continue to use caution and follow all emergency guidance and alerts if you’re on or near central campus.

Thank you to all the folks in Farmington for the warm welcome and tour of your beautiful community. It’s heartening to see what can happen when we work together toward our shared goal of building a brighter future for all New Mexicans. 🛣️

Last week, we went to Farmington where we sat down with city leaders, law enforcement, and advocates for children and families. We also had the opportunity to visit the local temple and new community spaces.

Throughout this interim, I’m traveling across our state to hear from New Mexicans about your needs, your hopes, and your ideas. Next stop: Farmington! 🛣️

Recently, I sat down with Dawn Morgan at @Z94KZOR  in Hobbs to talk about the things that matter to families in every corner of NM: affordability, access to healthcare, opportunities for our kids, and the safety of our communities. You can listen here: podomatic.com/podcasts/kzorm…

Big love to Hobbs for opening their arms to us and for fighting the good fight on behalf of working families. We’re right there with you! 💪🏾🫵🏽❤️

This week we visited Hobbs in the far SE corner of our state. We met with civil rights leaders, early childhood educators, entrepreneurs & with familias! Our work to build a world class early childhood system is laying the foundation for transformative change in that community.

Like so many Americans, my parents came to this country because they believed in the American Dream.  While some folks in D.C. may have lost sight of our nation's fundamental values, we the people know that decency and hope will win out in the end.  Happy Independence Day!
