The Chair of House Taxation & Revenue said it out loud: Democrats run New Mexico.
That’s exactly why children keep dying in the custody of CYFD.
That’s why our neighborhoods are drowning in violent crime.
That’s why families are driving hours out of state just to see a doctor.
That’s why our schools are failing so badly that kids are graduating without being able to read or write.
Democrats brag about their majority. But their majority has delivered nothing but failure and pain for New Mexico.

The chair of the House Tax Committee thinks you should have less money.
Rep. Derrick Lente, who chairs the committee that writes New Mexico’s tax laws, says eliminating the personal income tax only helps the wealthy. But under the Democrat majority, the state budget has grown year after year, and New Mexico is collecting more revenue than ever.
The truth is that eliminating the personal income tax means thousands of dollars every year for working New Mexico families, money that goes toward groceries, rent, and gas instead of Santa Fe’s next spending spree.
Rep. Lente and House Democrats oppose it because they want to keep spending your money without being held accountable for the results. Despite record budgets, our schools still rank near the bottom, crime continues to plague our communities, and families are struggling to keep up with the cost of living.
House Republicans believe the money you earn should stay with you, and that Santa Fe should be held accountable for every dollar it spends. We’ll keep fighting to make that happen.

Speaker Javier Martínez owes New Mexico an apology. Here's why.
He handed the gavel of the Epstein Truth Commission to Andrea Romero and then protected her through scandal after scandal. Deb Haaland's name scrubbed from the report. A taxpayer-funded PR firm turned into Romero's personal defense team and opposition research shop. Two written requests from Republicans to remove her, and the Speaker ignored both.
Victims were promised the truth about Zorro Ranch. Instead, the Speaker delivered failure: a commission that produced nothing because its Chair cared more about protecting herself and her political interests than finding the truth.
For months he looked the other way on Romero. Then a Republican learns her contract work as a prosecutor isn't permitted, resigns immediately, and suddenly the Speaker cares about accountability? Spare us.
The only apology owed here is from Speaker Martínez to every New Mexican he let down.

Important read: One-party rule breeds corruption and complacency. Political balance in the Legislature does more than shape policy. It holds unchecked power accountable. After decades of one party in charge, what’s it gotten New Mexico?

Simple question: Why are Reps. Anaya and Romero so desperate to keep this list hidden from New Mexicans?
Because the names on it are their political allies, and they'd rather protect them than get to the truth.
Crying about a "leak" is a cheap distraction from the fact that they've shown complete disregard for the victims and for New Mexicans demanding answers.

The NM Survivors' Truth Commission is deposing three prominent politicians in its Zorro Ranch probe — but internal disputes may delay the final report.

Listen to this Democrat openly admit her own party is full of corruption.
From day one, Democrats have misled New Mexicans on Project Jupiter, cutting backroom deals while quietly cashing checks from the very developers behind it.
This is the culture of corruption that runs deep in their party, and New Mexicans are the ones paying for it.
If one Democrat is willing to admit this publicly, what else aren’t they telling you?

BREAKING NEWS: Debate-Ducking @DebHaalandNM is on Day #10 since NM GOP Leadership called on her to hold a debate BEFORE early voting starts.
She's now REFUSED to debate and continues to deny New Mexicans an informative debate before they start casting their ballots.
See you tomorrow! #DebMustDebate #nmpol

Epstein Truth Commission Chair Andrea Romero used taxpayer dollars to pay a PR firm for political opposition research on New Mexico legislators and the Attorney General. The Commission's Republican members were kept completely in the dark.
This is not an isolated mistake. It's a pattern. Romero held a job the Attorney General found violated state law, used the Commission's PR firm to defend herself, faces pay-to-play accusations over $100,000 she steered to the office that hired her and deleted Deb Haaland’s name out of the Commission’s report.
This is the culture of corruption in Santa Fe: public money used as a political weapon, and Democratic leadership unwilling to hold their own accountable.
The victims of Jeffrey Epstein and New Mexico taxpayers deserve better than this. Chair Romero must explain these invoices, release the work product and tell New Mexicans who directed this research.

Democrats have run the Roundhouse for decades. They've had the majorities, the budgets, and the record surpluses. And what do New Mexicans have to show for it?
Over a billion dollars thrown at housing, homelessness, and behavioral health. Homelessness is still rising, Homes are still out of reach for many New Mexicans and families are still struggling.
The Democrat playbook never changes: grow government, spend more of your money, and when it fails, ask for even more. More spending, more bureaucracy and more government dependence with worse results every single time.
New Mexicans don't need bigger government. They need a government that works.
House Republicans are ready to rein in reckless spending, bring down the cost of housing, and build a future where New Mexicans can prosper on their own, not depend on government.
It's time for a new direction. #nmpol

House GOP Leader Gail Armstrong & Senator Nicole Tobiassen announced today they are drafting legislation to require, by law, at least one televised in-person debate between the major party candidates for governor for every future general election before early voting begins. Failure to adhere to this rule would result in financial penalties to the future campaigns.

New Mexico lost 248 doctors from 2019 to 2024, the only state in the country to go backward. Of those thinking about leaving, 8 in 10 point to punitive damages from malpractice lawsuits.
That's the system trial lawyers built. For years, they fought to keep damages uncapped and liability wide open. Every verdict made them richer and made it harder to practice medicine here.
In Clayton, the local hospital was rejected by more than 40 insurers before finding malpractice coverage at nearly five times the cost. As one hospital leader put it: "The patients go to Texas, and the lawyers come to New Mexico."
This year, lawmakers from both parties finally passed reform. The trial lawyers fought it every step of the way, and they're already working to roll it back.
If they succeed, the next doctor to leave might be yours.
