Protecting Our Water

Water is one of New Mexico’s most precious resources. As someone who has personally experienced the hardship of a dry well, I understand how important reliable, safe water is for every family.

During my time in office, I have worked to:

• Address Estancia’s water emergency.

• Support improvements to water systems in Carnuel, Tranquillo Pines, the Torrance County Water Association, and the Paa-Ko Water Treatment Plant.

• Meet with the New Mexico Environment Department and local officials to address PFAS contamination concerns affecting our communities.

• Protect East Mountain groundwater by standing with residents against incompatible overdevelopment that threatened local water resources.

Protecting our water requires planning, infrastructure investment, and responsible growth. I will continue working to ensure our communities have clean, reliable water for generations to come.
