Representing New Mexico in Congress has been the honor of my life. Thank you so much for following me here during my time in the Senate. Please follow my personal account, @tomudall, for updates on my future work to serve New Mexicans and the nation.

It was a privilege to accompany my friend, Senator Ben Ray Lujan, as he was sworn in as New Mexico's new Senator. He's going to fight for New Mexico families every single day in the Senate.

[Senator Ben Ray Luján @SenatorLujan]

Honored to serve, and ready to get to work for New Mexico.

It's long past time that we took action to reform our democracy: making it easier to vote, ending the dominance of big money, and rooting out corruption.

We can achieve our founding ideals -- and get back to working #ForThePeople. https://t.co/jrS38R1CEY

I encourage all my fellow senators to talk with Deb and get to know her— and to confirm her appointment ASAP in the new Congress.

Today I had the chance to talk with my good friend & the next @Interior Sec. @RepDebHaaland. We discussed many topics important to the department, including:

➡️ implementing the Great American Outdoors Act
➡️ wildlife corridors
➡️ #30x30
➡️ improving life for Native Americans

If Donald Trump actually cares about getting more relief to the American people, he’ll tell Mitch McConnell to stop blocking the $2,000 payments. Period.

Millions of Americans are losing unemployment assistance and eviction protection—and the government may shut down during a pandemic—all because President Trump refuses to sign the bill his own White House negotiated. His tantrums mean real suffering for American families.

Jill and I want to wish a Merry Christmas to all those celebrating in New Mexico and around the country! Our celebrations may look and feel different this year—but we wish you a holiday season filled with love, hope, gratitude, and good health.

@SenatorTomUdall is right - #HR1, the #ForThePeopleAct will help America truly live out its democratic values. Congress must pass this historic bill to strengthen our democracy and better represent the will of this diverse nation.

Thank you, @SenatorTomUdall, for championing democracy reform in the Senate. Know this: Our coalition won’t stop fighting until the #ForThePeopleAct is signed into law. https://t.co/QKDjVbLJFF

Native Americans across the country continue to demonstrate incredible strength & resilience in the face of a pandemic disproportionately hurting their communities. I am encouraged that this funding will make a difference for Native communities in the fight against #COVID19.

Working alongside Tribes has been one of the highest honors of my life, and I was proud to fight with Tribal leaders to include some of their most urgent priorities in this long-awaited federal relief. https://t.co/W5LbOnwwZO

Throughout my time in Congress, I have been proud to work across the aisle to pass Interior funding bills that invest in our public lands and environmental protection. This year's bill is a win for the outdoors, for the environment, and for our communities.

As we look toward the future, the science is clear: we must do more to protect our lands and waters if humanity is to survive and prosper, and conservation is critical to our economic growth and recovery.

I’m so glad to see my provisions to improve pipeline safety included in the year end spending bill. This will create common sense rules to prevent future methane leaks & combat the Trump admin.’s repeated attempts to weaken safeguards on methane pollution. https://t.co/AIhq4cHNSJ

[Friends of the Nat'l Museum of the American Latino @latinomuseum]

Congress has PASSED the National Museum of the American Latino Act! This is a momentous, critical step towards a @LatinoMuseum to celebrate the rich history and achievements of American Latinos, right in the heart of the nation’s capital. #CelebrateLatinoHistory

This bipartisan agreement takes important steps toward delivering aid to those who need it — but Congress must work with President-elect Joe Biden to do much more in the months to come to ensure our families can overcome this crisis and our communities can recover and prosper.

Today’s hard-fought #COVID19 relief compromise is long-overdue and short of what’s needed—but I’m glad that Congress will finally act to deliver urgently-needed resources to New Mexicans and Tribes to help defeat this virus and rebuild our economy.

As we look toward the future, it’s clear that #30by30 needs to be an essential part of a broad, bold approach to solving the climate and nature crises, and achieving environmental justice. https://t.co/8mltySYsNC
