Rep. Teresa Leger Fernández

Republicans just voted down my amendment to keep middle class tax cuts and simply remove the billionaire cuts. Don’t let them lie and tell you this is about “no tax on tips.”

Congratulations to Dr. Shelly C. Lowe on being named the next president of IAIA! She's a fantastic pick and an exceptional educator. I admired her work at @NEHgov, where she uplifted stories of all communities impacted by COVID and helped America celebrate its shared humanity.…

We know the truth. Here’s the report: govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GP…. Now that that’s cleared up, maybe you can answer why you aren’t following the law and hanging the plaque honoring the brave officers that defended you and the Capitol that day.

We’re going to get the truth for the victims and hold those guilty accountable.

Three years after Hermit’s Peak, the Forest Service lost control of another managed fire in NM. 16,000 acres scorched. Livestock killed. Livelihoods destroyed.   How can our communities trust their decisions when history keeps repeating itself?   The Forest Service must do better…

Trump tried to distract us by asking to release grand jury testimony… Here’s why that’s BS:

Republicans are eating your public programs to serve caviar to their billionaire donors. We’re standing with Big Bird—and the public will remember who strangled him.
