Get StartedI am committed to fight for a VA that is fully funded, fully staffed, and accessible to veterans wherever they are. That means making sure all veterans have more accessible transportation options available to them to access VA clinics or their preferred healthcare provider through an integrated veteran’s healthcare system, and that the VA is actively reaching out to veterans to ensure that they are getting the services they need. It also means ensuring that veterans have access to the most up-to-date and effective treatments, including for mental health conditions like PTSD and depression. Mental health treatment must be a priority if we are to reduce the staggering number of veteran suicides. Learn more
I’ll fight for increased funding for our public schools so that all students have access to the tools and technology they need to succeed in school and in life. I’ll work to increase funding for English language learning programs. I’ll advocate for better pay for teachers, so we can retain and attract the best educators to guide our children, and I’ll push to reduce class sizes so every child has the chance to learn. Finally, I’ll invest in early childhood education and work toward universal access to Pre-K for all New Mexican families. Learn more
In Congress, I’ll work across party lines to expand rural health care access by providing incentives for medical professionals to serve our rural communities. Learn more
We need secure borders to keep out traffickers and violent criminals. That means giving Customs and Border Protection the technology and personnel they need to keep us safe and maintain effective and efficient ports of entry. We don’t solve any problem by building another wall—that’s just fiscally irresponsible and impractical. And, burying ICE under another layer of bureaucracy doesn’t protect against abuses of power or help us enforce our laws. I will work with anyone who’s willing to focus on enforcing laws against criminals and keeping us all safe. Learn more
I’ll support investment in 21st century infrastructure, from safe roads to broadband and cell phone service. Learn more
