The Trump 2.0 Agenda:

- Billionaires get handouts
- Working families get higher costs
- Federal workers go unpaid

Republicans aren’t fighting to lower your costs — they’re fighting for their donors.

Kids in New Mexico deserve to be healthy. Trump's Health Secretary RFK Jr. threatens the well-being of our children by ignoring experts, cutting Medicaid, and limiting programs that ensure kids have healthy meals. As governor, I'll always defend New Mexico's kids and support families.

Received this video from a former staffer of mine. It’s a leaking pipeline in the Permian Basin. They called the Carlsbad field office and no one picked up, so it can’t be reported or followed up on.

The cost of the shutdown will be felt for decades.

WIC is running out of money and will stop feeding women and children if Republicans don’t bring the House back to DC.

But it’s not just women and children who are affected—so are farmers.

🚨📢Make sure everyone knows: The Republican excuse for shutting down the government is based on a downright lie. Day after day, Karoline "Lyin" Leavitt tries to blame the GOP shutdown on undocumented immigrants and poll after poll shows the American people aren't buying it.

Furloughed workers told me about families in crisis, jobs on the line, and communities without clean water protections. Their voices make clear what’s at stake in this shutdown. I’ll keep fighting for them. Will Republicans join me?
