Ben Ray Luján: “I think that it is something I fully support, and I have seen work, especially with lessons I have learned from leaders…”

As the Senator for New Mexico, and as the longtime U.S. Representative for IAIA’s home in Santa Fe, I’m honored to be appointed to this important leadership position.

In the Senate, Senator Luján leads legislation to reverse the devastating Republican cuts to SNAP.

If ICE proceeds with purchasing $20 million worth of electric-shock gloves, Congress needs a clear understanding of the device’s safety and authorized uses.

I’ve secured funding for IAIA’s academic programs, fought back against dangerous budget cuts from the Trump administration, and I’ll continue to be a strong advocate for this institution.
