John, New Mexico was one of the most recent states to legalize adult-use cannabis.

I was deeply proud to sign this bill into law because I know it will open up so many opportunities for New Mexico. Opportunities for workers and entrepreneurs to build prosperous careers. Opportunities to generate more revenue for state and local governments. And opportunities to mend the harm done by the failed war on drugs – which has taken a disproportionate toll on communities of color. 

This is the kind of change I'm dreaming of when I talk about building a brighter future for New Mexico – a win-win that allows both individuals and communities to thrive. Together, we'll keep fighting to make our bold agenda a reality. This year, we've proven that it's possible. 

But I can't do it without you, John. The only way we can keep passing forward-thinking laws like this one is by defending Democrats up and down the ballot. I'm setting a personal goal to raise $10,000 to keep New Mexico blue – and I'm hoping you'll help me meet it before 11:59 p.m. tonight.

If you supported legalizing cannabis in New Mexico, will you donate $15 or more right now to keep our state blue?

This landmark victory never would have happened without you – and I'm eternally grateful for your support. Thank you, John.
