In a moment, I’m about to ask if you can make your first $5 donation to fund some exciting upcoming stops for our campaign.
First, I wanted to give you a quick recap of a recent day I spent meeting voters in Taos.
After starting the day with tribal leaders and young people of Taos Pueblo, we stopped at Mante's Chow Cart. Their red chile, beans, and a taco gave me the energy I needed before a long day meeting with voters and visiting local businesses.
No stop in Taos is complete without a visit to Mante’s Chow Cart.
Next, we popped into a few local businesses, like Re-Threads Consignment and World Cup Coffee. As a former small-business owner myself, it was energizing to see all these businesses bustling with customers out enjoying the sunny day.
I ended up leaving the thrift store with a dress, sweater, and summer jacket.
At the coffee shop, we met a local artist who suggested we head over to the Taos Artist Collective. During our visit, I was excited to meet an artist I’ve been a fan of for years, and also discover new artists and their beautiful artwork. Being there, it was easy to see why New Mexico’s creative and entrepreneurial spirit holds up our local economies.
I loved our stop at the Taos Artist Collective.
My trip was complete after a wonderful visit with the Taos Valley Acequia Association. I’m so grateful to them for the work they do to protect our water and preserve our New Mexico traditions. Meeting people who are so passionate about their culture and community inspires me to keep fighting for ways to improve the lives of Taoseños and New Mexicans across our beautiful state.
Thanks for being a part of this campaign team. Talk soon,
Deb
