I’ll be honest, folks — I only have about 10 minutes of free time today.

In addition to recently launching my re-election campaign for U.S. Senate, I just called for federal rules to help close the loophole in gun seller background checks, introduced legislation to target the fentanyl crisis, and co-sponsored bills to strengthen federal response to wildfires and other natural disasters in New Mexico.

So today, I want to take these 10 minutes to share a bit about why I came to the U.S. Senate to represent New Mexico and fight for change like this in the first place.

Growing up, my parents taught me the value of hard work. My dad was a union lineman with the local utility company. My mom was a seamstress and an automobile tire factory worker.

I worked my way through college to earn a mechanical engineering degree and started my career at what’s now known as the Air Force Research Laboratory at Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque. Then I learned firsthand about the importance of conservation work in rural communities as an AmeriCorps fellow. Before running for public office, I also worked for and with nonprofits, including leading an organization that helped kids get outdoors, and to help elect Democrats to the state legislature.

From there, I served in the Albuquerque City Council, as a Natural Resources Trustee for New Mexico, in the U.S. House, and now in the U.S. Senate — always focusing on delivering for the people of New Mexico and tackling the climate crisis.

Right now, my number one priority is to continue my work in the Senate, addressing the challenges we face head-on. That means improving lives for you and your family, acting on climate change, and propelling New Mexico and our country into the clean energy future.

Now that you’ve taken some time to learn more about how I got here, I hope you’ll help me stay in the Senate by becoming a Founding Donor to my re-election campaign. Can you rush in a donation right now?
