I’ve long fought for Indigenous Peoples’ Day to be recognized as a federal holiday and will continue pushing to honor the Native people who have played a vital role in our communities and in shaping our nation’s history.

New Mexico small businesses, like New Mexico Piñon Coffee, are the backbone of our communities and help drive our local economies.
