JUST IN: Senator Ben Ray Luján has won the Democratic primary in New Mexico.

New Mexico, let’s send him back to the Senate!

[Democrats @TheDemocrats]

New Mexico, let’s win this together.

[Ben Ray Luján @benraylujan]

Thank you, New Mexico!

I'm honored by your trust and ready to keep earning it. Between now and November, we'll keep fighting to elect Democrats up and down the ballot and in Congress, I'll keep fighting to lower costs, protect health care, and stand up for New Mexico families.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Thanks to the almost two dozen states who have stepped up to make health care more affordable, even after Congress refused to extend federal subsidies. It’s helping more people get the care they need, and more states should follow their lead.

Sen. Luján: “Is the FCC independent?… On your website, it simply says ‘The FCC's independent.’”

FCC Chairman Brendan Carr: “The FCC is not.”

Luján: "Is your website lying?"

Carr: “Possibly. The FCC is not an independent agency.”

News: Sen. Ben Ray Luján (D-N.M.) is introducing the Keep SNAP and WIC Funded Act of 2025, a standalone bill that will provide funding for the programs amid the shutdown.

Nearly half of the Dem caucus has already signed on. Check out the one-pager: https://t.co/mYSwPcDPlb

Trump said a shutdown is his responsibility.

Now’s the moment for Trump and Republicans to step up.

Let’s protect healthcare, prevent skyrocketing premiums, and end this shutdown for good.

Powerful conversation with @alivitali today:

[Senator Ben Ray Luján @SenatorLujan]

Senator Alex Padilla is a colleague and a friend. What happened to him is an embarrassment to our country.

We now have an executive branch that believes it can throw down and handcuff a sitting U.S. Senator – and lie about it.

I’m calling on every one of my colleagues, Democrat and Republican: Do the right thing. Don’t let this administration silence us.

[Senator Alex Padilla @SenAlexPadilla]

If this is how this administration responds to a Senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, and to day laborers throughout California and across the country.

We will hold this administration accountable.

[Max Cohen @maxpcohen]

News: A group of Senate Democrats led by Sen. Ben Ray Luján (N.M.) is demanding RFK Jr. roll back his overhaul of a CDC vaccine panel.

Dems calling on RFK to "immediately reinstate the members of ACIP you have baselessly fired.”

Please watch this wonderful interview I had the opportunity to do with Audrey & Jeremy, who simply want to keep their independence— and want lawmakers aware of the impacts of the reconciliation bill (as it’s currently written) on people like them.

[Adán Serna @AdanSernaNM]

.@ktumulty @washingtonpost: Fight everywhere. Ben Ray Luján, now a senator from New Mexico, ran the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee during that cycle. “We weren’t waiting. We showed up in all parts of America,” Luján recalled.

Another endorsement for Schatz: Sen. Lujan tells me he’s backing Schatz for whip

[Senate Democrats @SenateDems]

President Trump said that American families are going to feel “some pain” from his tariffs.

His trade representative agreed.

[Senator Ben Ray Luján @SenatorLujan]

Mom sends her thanks for the kind words, @SenBooker!

Thank you for standing up for all Americans – no matter how long it takes.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

Luján to RFK Jr: "Mr Secretary, if you're watching today, respond to the damn letter! People are dying."
