In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“For those of you in the media that may be wondering, like how did we pass a major housing bill, but it didn’t really register? It’s partly because in the midst of all of the high drama of what was happening in Congress, the president did not want to sign this bill into law, and so the House put a provision in the bill that allowed it to take effect without the president’s signature”
“With the rising cost of living — from groceries, gas and rent — it is imperative we put in the work to ensure our families, young people, seniors, and veterans get the support they need when experiencing a housing crisis.”
“Housing is a human right. Every person in our communities deserves a safe, affordable place they can call home.”
“Today is really about talking about affordable housing and the housing crisis in New Mexico and here in Albuquerque … and all of the things that we are doing at the congressional, state, city and nonprofit level to tackle the affordable housing crisis”
“And that is becoming more and more dire every day, every week, every month.”
“We know that because of the increase in cost of real estate and rent, families just cannot find affordable housing anymore.”

“And it’s kind of extraordinary when you think about how significant this legislation was.”
“It just sort of quietly slipped through.”
“The Trump Administration’s plan to open these sacred places to oil and gas drilling is a direct attack to Tribal Sovereignty and New Mexico’s history, cultures, and living traditions. I am proud to stand today and every day with the entire New Mexico delegation, the All Pueblo Council of Governors, Tribal leaders, advocates, and communities across our state to protect this irreplaceable landscape for generations to come.”
“Chaco Canyon is not for sale! As one the most sacred places on the planet — the Greater Chaco Landscape has been a sacred landscape for Pueblo and Diné people since time immemorial.”
“The funding we secured in these funding packages will make transformational investments in New Mexico’s communities—from investments in public safety to tackle the fentanyl crisis and help save lives, to helping New Mexicans access housing, healthcare, and behavioral health, and to protect our precious waters. These projects will have meaningful impacts in our communities for generations to come”
