Friends—we’re so grateful to be home! We’ve got a packed week with town halls in Albuquerque and Los Lunas, conversations with local leaders, and celebrating local wins. We’re also taking a moment to talk about some of our international work. On every front, local, national, and

The U.S. Constitution provides that key decision-making officials must be confirmed with the consent of Congress through the Senate. The Founding Fathers did this to put a check on the Executive and abuse of power. I would put unvetted DOGE staffers removing 40-year career staff

Remember that time when House Republicans spent the week *LYING* to the American people (and frankly to themselves) about the $3-5 Trillion in deficit spending in their bill? Welp, not even Elon Musk is falling for it.

Oak Flat is sacred. SCOTUS’s decision not to take up this appeal is an abrogation of the U.S. Tribal trust responsibility and basic human decency. But, this fight is not over. We will *never* stop fighting to protect tribal lands! apnews.com/article/suprem…

Dude, I don’t know if you noticed, but your political impeachment from last Congress already flopped. But we've got a whole list of waste, fraud, abuse, and corruption cases involving the current President you could look into. Just a thought.

Elon Musk has exited the building. But make no mistake, this fight is not over. We will continue to fight in Congress, the courts, and to raise the voices of our communities. And, we WILL hold them accountable.

Just because Elon Musk is leaving—doesn’t mean this battle is over. DOGE has burrowed into every agency and has gotten even more aggressive over the last several weeks. Let me be clear: we will hold every one of them to account.

Last week was a huge win in the courts to stop the Trump Administration’s dismantling of the Department of Education. This week, I sat down with The Bulwark to talk about DOGE, reconciliation, the needs of our kids and why these attacks on education and our communities are
