The Interior Department manages our public lands to make sure we protect them, honor them, and preserve them for future generations. This was all Indigenous land, once, and Native Americans have endured detrimental federal policies — so it's ironic that we've never had a Native American Interior Secretary. I would be honored to become the first. | Deb Haaland

Interior Secretary Deb Haaland announced new federal protections for the sacred site called Chaco Canyon in early June. The UNESCO world heritage site is located in New Mexico near the four-corners area and is a sacred place to many pueblos and the Navajo Nation.

I don’t come from wealth, and I’ve never had the means to self-fund a campaign. I’ve lived the challenges so many of us face, which is why I know what it takes to fight for New Mexico families. That’s why I’m taking on billionaires and corporate special interests — and why I need grassroots supporters like you standing with me.

Deb Haaland has spent her life fighting for New Mexico—whether in the halls of Congress or as Secretary of the Interior. She’s stood with us through it all. And now, it’s our turn to stand with her. Veterans, small farmers, and working families across New Mexico are with Deb because they know she puts people first—every time. But the stakes are high. Donald Trump and his Republican allies are already gearing up to take control of New Mexico. That’s why we need to act now—early and decisively. Wi
