Thank you Sarah Hawkes Valente for making this shareable.Is that a threat, Governor? We all know the only reason New Mexico will be hit the way it will be is because your administration built its budget on federal money, which it spent on illegal immigrants and unsustainable programs. Now you’re panicking because someone finally had the backbone to shut off the faucet.Why don’t you stop with the fear tactics and do your job to protect actual New Mexicans? You’ve been bragging about our massive surplus (about $892 million last year plus around $3.1 billion in reserves), while rural hospitals have struggled, schools are failing our kids, and nearly 20 percent of our restaurants shut down during your COVID lockdowns (over 1,000 closures out of about 5,775 active restaurants at the time). Thousands of small businesses never came back. That’s not because of Republicans. That’s because of your decisions.You say this bill is going to hurt New Mexicans, but let’s be clear about why. These cuts aren’t aimed at seniors, kids, or hard-working families. They’re aimed at waste, abuse, and the massive costs of illegal immigration. If New Mexico is hit hard, it’s because your administration built its programs around federal cash with no accountability, even bragging about our surplus while letting people game the system.If NM's Medicaid gets cut, it’s because it was bloated with ineligible recipients (and those who should have been ineligible), including non-citizens. If SNAP or school meal programs lose funding, it’s because the programs weren’t being audited properly, and people who weren’t supposed to be on the rolls were draining resources. If rural hospitals close, it’s because they were kept afloat by temporary federal handouts instead of sound state policy.You had years to prepare for this. You knew those emergency funds wouldn’t last forever. You should have prioritized New Mexicans instead of building a budget that collapses the moment Washington tightens the belt.You know we’re going to feel pain because you’ve set us up for failure, and now you’re desperate to keep the buck from stopping with you.So don’t spin this budget cut as an attack on blue states. The real damage has been done right here at home by leadership that chose politics over people. You had the money. You had the power. You made the wrong choices. Don’t shift the blame now. Use the surplus, cut the waste, and protect the people you were actually elected to serve.Sarah Hawkes Valente
