WATCH: Martin Heinrich and Secretary Gina Raimondo lay out why the investments we made in the CHIPS and Science Act are so important for American manufacturing and our national security.

I joined a letter w/ Kirsten Gillibrand & Sen. Dan Sullivan urging that we fully fund Corporation for Public Broadcasting in our next govt funding package.

For the well-being of our country & democracy, it is important that we support the work of NPR, PBS & other public broadcasting.

>Martin Heinrich says the Senate Commerce Committee could markup some AI legislation as early as next week.

“What AI gives us the opportunity to do is to take things that used to take us literally decades to develop, and compress that down into weeks and months.”

Tune in shortly: I will join Chuck Schumer to unveil our Bipartisan Senate AI Working Group's policy roadmap.

In the midst of rapid AI advancements, the Senate can lead or be led.

We plan to lead, to deliver for the American people, helping ensure that AI comes as a benefit to society, not a threat.

ICYMI: For the first time, New Mexicans will have a legal right to a refund if their flights have been cancelled or delayed for more than three hours. We are lowering travel costs for families, making it safer to fly, and supporting our nation’s air traffic controllers.

I fought hard to get the FEND Off Fentanyl Act over the finish line & provide law enforcement the resources they need to combat the flow of fentanyl before it ever crosses our borders.

By democratizing access to AI systems, we can ensure advancements are a benefit to our society & country, not a threat. I introduced the CREATE AI Act so more Americans can do the research necessary to understand how to unleash AI’s potential for good.

I’m focused on delivering law enforcement the tools they need to both prevent violent crime & solve it. Last week, I joined New Mexico Department of Justice & DASO to announce new tech I secured to help improve their ability to tackle gun violence in our state.

It’s been 98 days since Trump and House Republicans blocked bipartisan legislation to secure our border.

I’m fighting to ensure we set the right guardrails on AI to maintain America’s global leadership in this space & ensure its advancements come as a benefit to our world — not a threat.

Great to see @FERC listen to my calls urging adoption of a strong, final rule on the US transmission system. This new rule will:

✅ Grow our economy

✅ Decrease energy costs

✅ Keep communities safe during extreme weather

✅ Address energy security

I secured $750,000 w/ Senator Ben Ray Luján & Rep. Teresa Leger Fernández for development of professional social workers at Highlands University.

This will tackle NM’s social worker shortage, creating pathways to this in-demand career field, while supplying resources they need to serve their communities.

Great to attend the Special Competitive Studies Project’s AI Expo for Nat'l Competitiveness with Senator Todd Young & Senator Mike Rounds to discuss our work to unlock AI innovation and maintain America’s competitive lead. It’s critical that Congress sets the right guardrails as this technology rapidly evolves.

New Mexicans deserve successful careers in their home communities. I am a proud cosponsor of @TimKaine & Senator Mike Braun’s JOBS Act to provide grants for high-quality programs that will prepare our workforce for in-demand work sectors like IT, clean energy, manufacturing & more.

When it comes to crime, my focus is on preventing what we can and solving it when we can’t. These machines will help us do both – solving the crimes that happen before those same criminals can do more harm.
