A conservative plan for New Mexico
Empowering Education Choice
Ensure parents can choose the education that best fits their children’s needs, promoting flexible funding models like education savings accounts that allow funds to follow the student.
Credit Access for All
Every American has a right to access essential credit resources as part of a vibrant economy. We believe individuals should be free to make financial decisions that best fit their needs, whether through traditional banks or alternative lenders.
Property and Income Tax Relief
Advocate for targeted property and income tax reductions to ease burdens on families and businesses as costs rise. Prioritize tax reforms that promote home ownership and encourage investment in New Mexico’s economy.
Strengthening Community Safety
Promote practical, community-based solutions to improve public safety, including partnerships between law enforcement, community leaders, and local organizations to address rising crime and support safe neighborhoods.
Economic Development through Energy and Innovation
Defend New Mexico’s status as an energy leader by supporting policies that promote responsible oil, gas, and alternative energy production, while fostering an innovation-friendly environment for emerging technologies and startups.
Fiscal Responsibility and Efficiency
Push for smart budgeting that cuts waste, reduces unnecessary spending, and focuses resources on essential services. Make sure government spending is transparent, accountable, and aligned with community priorities.
Protecting Property Rights and Land Use Freedom
Ensure New Mexicans’ rights to use their land responsibly and resist federal overreach that limits local landowners’ freedom to manage property for agriculture, ranching, and family development.
Transparent and Accountable Government
Work to increase government accountability by expanding transparency in public spending and decision-making. Advocate for policies that require reporting on taxpayer-funded projects and prevent misuse of public funds.
Promoting Health Access and Affordability
Address barriers to affordable healthcare by advocating for market-driven solutions that expand access, increase competition, and make quality healthcare affordable for all New Mexicans.
Celebrating Cultural and Economic Diversity
Encourage policies that respect New Mexico’s diverse cultures and foster economic opportunities across rural and urban areas. Collaborate with local leaders to promote inclusive growth that respects the unique heritage and potential of New Mexico’s communities.
