"I very much look forward to working with this Committee and my colleagues to get the Violence Against Women Act passed in the Senate."

"the crisis of human trafficking and particularly of missing and murdered Indigenous relatives and women is one of my top priorities."

"this is a crisis not only in New Mexico's Indigenous communities but across the United States and across the world."

"we have to pass the Violence Against Women Act. And so I urge my colleagues in the Senate to pass that bill urgently."
