I am a currently a stay at home homeschooling mom. I've been home for 26 years. My husband and I have been together for 37 years. We have five children and seven grandchildren. I have a Bachelor and a Masters Degree in Elementary Education and I taught in the public schools for five years. I am a small business owner, a ministry leader, and a local Christian author. I oversee a ministry that teaches about Spiritual Warfare. I've been leading this ministry since 2016. I am a wife of a military vet and mom of a wounded warrior. I love God, my family, and my country.
  • Families First. The family (one biological male and one biological female) is the backbone of society and government. The sanctity of the family is important because it helps all people become better by instilling the value of caring for others. Children play an important role in our society as they live what they learn. The stronger families are in our society, the stronger our government can be.

    We can help families thrive IF we STOP government interference of over taxation and over regulation. We can also help families thrive by safeguarding their inalienable rights protected by the US Constitution.

    My husband and I have spent thirty-seven years, and counting, raising five children. I know what families need to thrive.
  • STOP over taxation and over regulation
  • What we incentivize, we get.
END over taxation

Education Choice
Voter ID
Make New Mexico more business friendly
Close our southern border from illegal immigration
Abolish Gross Receipts Tax and Personal Income Tax

SECURE 1st and 2nd Amendment rights
I look up to my husband. He has such self-control and wisdom. I've been learning from him.
I think wanting the best for other people is a good quality, putting the needs of others before oneself makes one successful.
Vote on behalf of their constituents according to the US Constitution and Republican Platform.
That I love God, my family, and country.
My first job at Dunkin Donuts at the age of 17. I was there about six months.
The Bible. It gives me understanding, wisdom, assurance.
I use to have a reoccurring nightmare of me walking up to the stage to receive my college diploma and just as I reach out to get it, they yank it away from me. Dreams that come true are hard to sit in. I don't have those nightmares anymore but sometimes I don't think I have what it takes to do what I've been called to do.
It needs to be separate and independent to achieve Separation of Powers. The governors job IS NOT to push bills. That is not her job.

"The legislative branch is responsible for enacting the laws of the state and appropriating the money necessary to operate the government.

The executive branch is responsible for implementing and administering the public policy enacted and funded by the legislative branch." NCSL.com
Yes. Passing bills is a numbers game. The ability to persuade other legislators to vote for your sponsored bill is how the legislature works.
New Mexican parents want their children to stay in New Mexico. I heard from two young parents who moved to New Mexico recently. They don't want to stay because there are little educational choices for their five children.

Parents want educational choice.
You have to hand it to short people, because we usually can't reach it anyway. (I'm 4'9")
The easiest one to get done. VOTER ID. My city has voter ID for municipal elections. REAL ID is the only way, without adding BIGGER government, to achieve this. REAL ID or US Passport
Education

Government, Elections, & Indian Affairs
Rules and Order of Business

Taxation and Revenue
YES. Citizens should have the right to initiate constitutional amendments and state statues.
