New Mexico State House of Representatives

We’re fortunate to have a pretty terrific House of Representatives. We have many long-standing environmental and progressive heroes in the House. In 2018, we elected some great, new progressive women to the House to help solidify our majority. This year, our goals are three-fold.

Defending some of the 2018 freshman winners who are in tough districts, including Melanie Stansbury, who has become a true leader in addressing the water shortages we are increasingly experiencing in the State, and Karen Bash.
Continue strengthening the House by electing a new round of great candidates, including Jessica Velasquez, Brittney Barreras, Kristina Ortez, Marian Matthews, and Billie Helean.
Reelecting our longstanding environmental heroes like Matt McQueen.
