Thanks to the Cibola County Federation of Democratic Women for letting me join you all earlier this week to discuss my run for Land Commissioner.
It's always great to make it out to Grants and see the natural beauty Cibola County has to offer!

(2/2) By conserving our land, holding all those who lease State Trust Land to the highest standard of operation, and finding ways to diversify our economy to create local jobs for New Mexicans we will protect our climate and our future.

(1/2) I'm thrilled to announce that I have been endorsed by Climate Cabinet Action! If elected Land Commissioner, I will continue to fight for our land, our air, and our water today and for future generations.

It was great to join thousands of New Mexicans today who came out to rally and march for the "Workers Over Billionaires" Labor Day event.
Thank you to all the organizers for putting on an amazing demonstration with a huge turnout!

(3/3) Those moments shaped me, and they are a reminder that no one is too small to make their voice heard.
If elected State Land Commissioner, I will do everything in my power to continue standing up for works and their rights.

(2/3) In fact, when I was just 7 years old, I was pictured in the Albuquerque Tribune standing up for workers rights. A little kid holding a sign, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with workers demanding fairness and respect.

(1/3) Labor Day is not just a day off, it's a commemoration of the hard won gains and ongoing struggles of the labor movement.
I know what that fight looks like. Growing up my stepdad was the president of the local Machinists Union, and I spent parts of my childhood on the picket line.

We won the last battle on Republicans’ efforts to sell off public lands–but the fight isn’t over.

@juansanchez-nm.bsky.social understands that. We’ve fought to protect our public lands together before and I know he’ll continue to do so as your next Land Commissioner.

OPINION: A win for New Mexico's public lands — but the fight isn't over

In New Mexico, our land is more than just open spaces, it’s who we are and essential to our way of life. That’s why thousands of New Mexicans raised the

"These lands aren’t just lines on a map. They’re places where we hunt, fish, camp, graze cattle, gather firewood and learn from elders... they are the heart of New Mexico’s cultural identity.

It takes a village.
I am proud to be from Valencia County and am grateful for my community that has always shown up and now is showing up supporting my campaign for Land Commissioner!
These folks have known me since I was a mocosito called 'Juanito'. This community helped raise me.

✅ Gallup, New Mexico

Yesterday I was able to talk with the McKinley County Dems . Such a great group of people who care deeply about their land and water, and want to do everything necessary to protect it.

3 days, 3 campaign stops. I am so grateful for the support I am getting and the enthusiasm I am seeing about protecting and preserving our public lands.

Thanks to the Democratic Party of Sandoval County for having me. From Bernalillo to Cuba, Sandoval county is filled with some of NMs most beautiful places. Protection of our lands and waters is essentially to keep special places in Sandoval County pristine for generations to come.
