LANGUAGE ACCESS HAS BEEN SIGNED INTO LAW❗❗❗
Thank you @GovMLG for this important step to language access by signing #HB22. This was only possible thanks to our community who came together to demand change for NM. #nmpol #nmleg #LanguageAccess

[Kay Bounkeua @KayForNM]

As you all might've read by now, yes, I will not be running for HD19 this year. So today I want to thank each and every resident of my district. It has been a huge privilege & honor to serve in #nmleg to bring forward the needs of hardworking New Mexican families! #KayForNM #HD19

[Kay Bounkeua @KayForNM]

Because for our Legislature to truly represent the people of New Mexico today, it needs to include and fully support the voices of working parents, women and people of color who wish to serve in our state’s lawmaking process. #nmpol #nmleg #modernizenmleg

[Kay Bounkeua @KayForNM]

ICYMI: I have an opinion piece that ran this weekend pointing to the difficult realities everyday New Mexicans, who become lawmakers, continue to face as we navigate our outdated, volunteer-based, and unpaid Legislature:
