John, it has been the honor of my lifetime to serve as the first Democratic Latina Governor in our nation's history. That's why I'm committed to doing everything I can to elect Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, who will be the first Black and Asian woman Vice President ever in our country.
|
I also have exciting news to share. Vice President Biden has given me a great honor: On Wednesday night, I'll have the chance to share New Mexico's story on the national stage in support of the historic Biden-Harris ticket.
|
I'm scheduled to speak alongside Democratic champions President Barack Obama, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, former Secretary Hillary Clinton, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, former Rep. Gabby Giffords, Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers – and Sen. Kamala Harris herself.
|
This will be a huge moment to show the rest of the country what we can do when we roll up our sleeves and help working families. There's nothing I'd love more than to share every single way we've dreamed bigger, reached higher and raised the bar for what Democratic leadership looks like. But with my time, I’ll only have a chance to share a tiny glimpse of everything we've accomplished together in New Mexico – and that's why I'm turning to you.
|
John, you've been the engine behind all the progress we've made in New Mexico. So, as I'm putting the finishing touches on my speech, I want to know what big achievements mattered most to you. What do you think I should tell the rest of the country about the progress we've made in New Mexico? You can take this short survey to let me know – but only until 11:59 p.m. tonight.

|
I’m proud of everything that we’ve accomplished together – strengthening our public schools, charting a renewable energy future, mounting a science-first response to a global pandemic. I know we’re creating a better future for our great state – and we’re showing the entire nation what’s possible when Democratic women lead.
|
I may be the one giving the speech – but this moment is yours and mine both. None of this would have been possible without your support. Thank you for fighting for our future alongside me.
