Republicans just voted down my amendment to keep middle class tax cuts and simply remove the billionaire cuts. Don’t let them lie and tell you this is about “no tax on tips.”

Trump’s Iran war means more death, higher prices, more pollution — and a payday for Putin and foreign oil companies.

The farmworker and civil rights movement was built by countless people—especially women and families who sacrificed everything for a better future. That history is bigger than any one person. Honoring that legacy means facing painful truths and continuing the work for justice with honesty and humanity. A movement rooted in justice must address all injustice. I am heartbroken and deeply disturbed by the stories that have come forward from women who say they were abused as girls by Cesar Chavez, and Dolores Huerta’s painful account of what she endured. Survivors carried this pain in silence for years. We owe them our support; we must hear them and believe them. My Democratic Women’s Caucus colleagues and I will always stand with survivors and will continue fighting for a future where all women and girls are safe in their communities, homes, and at work.

New Mexicans were the first responders to the Nuclear Age. After years of advocacy from people like Tina Cordova, they are finally being compensated for the harms they suffered from nuclear testing. Visit my website fernandez.house.gov to see if you qualify for $100,000 under RECA and how to apply.

The ID I can use to fly wouldn’t be enough to vote. The SAVE Act is not a voter ID law, it’s voter suppression.

The Trump Administration has refused to explain to Congress or the American people the full cost of the war. But we know it is more than anyone wants to pay in gas prices, in bombs, in lives lost, and the over 200 service members wounded.
Manu Raju@mkraju

More than two weeks into Iran war, no Cabinet official has testified at a public House hearing about costs to taxpayers and service members. Just asked the speaker why not, and he pointed to classified briefings for members. “They have well explained this to members of Congress.”

Inflation under Trump had already increased prices for Americans. Now his war with Iran is hitting gas prices across the country. New Mexicans shouldn’t have to pay more to drive to work or pick up their children.

Congress just passed my Small Cemetery Conveyance Act. Here’s what that means and how it will affect New Mexicans.

There’s an easy way to fix this mess. Republicans can decide they want to actually govern and pass our bill to fund TSA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard today.

Ticketmaster executives are bragging about “robbing fans blind”. The Biden administration took them to court. The Trump administration is now giving them a free pass. Why is Trump always with the billionaires and big corporations?
