Issue Position: Our Santa Fe

Issue Position

New Mexico House District 45 is special. We are filled with the working families and community building seniors that make Santa Fe incredible. We need to continue to welcome all community members and continue to build our community however we can.

Equal Rights -- Let me be clear. There are certain universal truths: women have a right to make decisions regarding their body without government interference. Love is love and we should all be able to marry who we love. Our trans brothers and sisters should live freely and not in fear. Immigrants make our nation great. I will fight for these truths in all of my work.
Smart Gun Laws -- We deserve smart gun laws that put New Mexican families first. We all deserve to feel safe to worship, learn and play in our community. Smart gun laws like those that regulate semi-automatic weapons or require safe storage of weapons, protect our families while ensuring our rights to hunt and own a gun. We can prioritize and protect our families and preserve our heritage.
Prioritize Transit -- House District 45 community members are active throughout the city and we must ensure that New Mexico is supporting efforts to expand transit for our locals that live in the community.
Increase Opportunities Locally -- It's simple we must do more to bring resources closer to our district. Our children shouldn't have to cross town to find entertainment. Local businesses can expand in our community. And working families should be able to work and find care for their families right here.
Care for Our Homeless Population -- Throughout HD 45 we see the crushing effects of homelessness. We must increase access to mental health facilities and shelter so that our homeless can take steps to ensure that they are safe and increase long-term housing.
Capital Outlay -- We must invest our capital outlay in programs that help our young people explore future possibilities worthy of their dreams and capabilities.
