Martin Heinrich is running for re-election to the US Senate. He has held the position since 2013, and serves as chairman of the Joint Economic Committee, chairman of the Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Subcommittee, and previously as chairman of the Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies subcommittee.
Previously, Heinrich represented New Mexico's 1st Congressional District from 2009-13 and also served as an Albuquerque City Councilor, and Council President, from 2004-08. He has also run his own public affairs firm, led a nonprofit focused on educating young people on the environment and science, served on the executive committee of the Sierra Club's Rio Grande Chapter, and was appointed by NM Governor Bill Richardson to be the state's Natural Resources Trustee.
Heinrich’s priorities include land conservation and protecting agriculture, ranching, and food systems, investing in infrastructure via rebuilding roads/bridges, expanding access to clean drinking water, and increasing high-speed internet access, protecting civil liberties and individual freedoms, expanding education, healthcare, and wellness programs, and leading efforts to grow jobs and the economy via renewable and clean energy.
His track record includes championing reproductive rights and healthcare – he advanced legislation protecting access to in vitro fertilization (IVF), contraception, and abortion, and co-sponsored Medicare-For-All legislation in 2017. He is a strong supporter of civil rights and was an original cosponsor of 2009 legislation to repeal the ban on gay marriage. Heinrich has advocated for and passed common sense gun safety laws, expanded health care access for veterans in both urban and rural areas, and led efforts to expand and invest in mental/behavioral services including specifically addressing the opioid/fentanyl public health crisis.
Heinrich is also well known for his work supporting clean/renewable energy jobs and protecting the environment and public lands. He co-sponsored the Green New Deal in 2019, which would establish net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, and led efforts to establish Columbine-Hondo Wilderness in the Carson National Forest, the creation of the Rio Grande Del Norte and Organ Mountains Desert-Peaks National Monuments, creating the Sabinoso Wilderness, expanded public access to the Valles Caldera National Preserve, Passed the Great American Outdoors Act to address billions of dollars of deferred maintenance on public lands, and designating White Sands as a National Park.
Martin Heinrich is being challenged by Nella Domenici. Domenici is the daughter of former US Senator Pete Domenici, who served from 1973 to 2009. Previously, she worked as CFO for Bridgewater Associates, the world’s largest hedge fund, and has also worked for Citadel and Credit Suisse. Domenici’s stated priorities include increasing oil and gas extraction while reducing regulations, spending more on border security and law enforcement, and lowering taxes. Additionally, on the topic of reproductive health, while she has labeled herself as moderate via TV ads, Domenici has donated close to $20K to extreme anti-abortion candidates, including Yvette Herrell and Mark Ronchetti in New Mexico, Adam Laxalt in Nevada, and her former Bridgewater CEO Dave McCormick in Pennsylvania.
We highly recommend Martin Heinrich for US Senate based on his clear and consistent record of protecting civil and individual rights, investing in infrastructure, spurring sustainable economic growth and renewable/clean energy jobs, and championing public lands and the environment, which are essential to New Mexico’s heritage, traditions, and economy.

State Senate
Depending on where you live, you may have one of the below State Senate races on your ballot.
State Senator, District 19
Senate District 19 is an open seat this year as Senator Gregg Schmedes is not running for re-election. William Burton Scott, Ant Thornton, and Catherine Ann McDivitt are running for the seat. While there is not enough information on Burton Scott and McDivitt to make a recommendation, we do not recommend Ant Thornton for this seat.
William Burton Scott, a retired Army veteran, is running as the Democratic party candidate for Senate District 19. Scott did not return a questionnaire, has no campaign website and has no recent activity on his social media platform.
Catherine Ann McDivitt, a nutritionist and dietician, is also running for Senate District 19 as the Libertarian candidate for the race. McDivitt did not return a questionnaire, has no campaign website, or a social media platform. From the little information we gathered, she has no political background and believes that more work must be done to retain health professionals and reduce crime in our state.
Anthony “Ant” Thornton, a retired aerospace engineer, is running as the Republican party candidate for this seat. Thornton’s priorities include supporting oil and gas producers, closing the border, opposing abortion access and reproductive healthcare, increased law enforcement and defunding public schools by advancing school choice. He has also shared dis/misinformation on immigration and climate change, supports fake pregnancy clinic Care Net, and attended events with Americans for Prosperity (AFP), a right-wing group that opposes access to healthcare and worker protections. Given his views and track record, we do not recommend Ant Thornton for Senate District 19.
There is not enough public information for us to make a recommendation for or against William Burton Scott or Catherine McDivitt for Senate District 19 at this time.
