“I come to the floor today to raise my voice on behalf of constituents all across New Mexico. Now, this week, all eyes have been on the U.S. Senate. Millions of people across the country tuned into C-Span, social media live streams, and YouTube to watch our friend from New Jersey. We all got to bear witness to the unyielding patriotism of Senator Cory Booker, who rightfully said: This is a moral moment. This is not about the right or left; this is about right or wrong. Today, I am proud to join my Senate Democratic colleagues in pushing back against a Republican budget resolution that is wrong for the people not just of New Mexico but every corner of America. Today, Senate Democrats have uplifted the stories of Americans who are worried about the path that President Trump, Elon Musk, and congressional Republicans are putting us on, folks who feel the pain every time they go to the grocery store, moms and dads who don't know how they are going to afford food next week, grandmothers and grandfathers who are scared that their hard-earned benefits are going to be eliminated. Now, New Mexicans have been calling, emailing, texting, and talking to me from all across New Mexico. I hear you. I see you. Every time I go to the grocery store, folks stop me in the grocery aisles back home and ask me when President Trump is going to start lowering prices.…”
