Luján Holds Town Hall, Hears Directly From New Mexicans

Santa Fe, N.M. – U.S. Senator Ben Ray Luján (D-N.M.) held an in-person town hall at Santa Fe Community College to hear directly from constituents and engage in a conversation regarding issues impacting New Mexicans. During the town hall, Senator Luján gave remarks highlighting his work on behalf of New Mexicans and took questions from attendees on their concerns. More than 200 New Mexicans attended.

Senator Luján is fighting in Congress to defend New Mexicans from extreme policies, mass firings, and deep cuts that threaten our communities. Senator Luján is fighting back against policies that hurt New Mexico farmers, ranchers, workers, veterans, and families. Whether it’s protecting families from rising costs, standing up for workers, or defending New Mexico’s values, Senator Luján is committed to ensuring all New Mexicans are heard, protected, and never left behind.

“I’m willing to work with anyone when it comes to doing something positive for the people of New Mexico,” said Senator Luján. “The magic in the Senate that I’ve learned is being able to do something we do well in New Mexico – treating people with respect and dignity. Now on the other hand, if someone chooses not to treat people from New Mexico with respect and dignity and wants to move policy that’s going to hurt constituents that I’m honored to represent, game on. We have to stand strong.”
