Congresswoman Melanie Stansbury addressed recent developments in Congress during a press call, focusing on the Republicans’ budget reconciliation package and potential insider trading by President Trump. The budget resolution passed by Republicans includes trillions in tax breaks for the wealthy, funded by cuts to social programs like Medicaid and SNAP. Stansbury criticized this as benefiting billionaires and large corporations at the expense of basic services for Americans.
Stansbury also raised concerns about potential insider trading by President Trump and his allies, following a surge in the stock market after Trump’s suggestion to buy stocks before announcing a tariff reduction. Congressional Democrats are investigating these actions, questioning possible market manipulation and illegal activities. Stansbury highlighted the work of the New Mexico delegation in protecting the state’s lands and cultural sites, including the reintroduction of the Buffalo Tract Protection Act to safeguard a sacred ancestral site.
The press call shed light on national issues impacting New Mexico and showcased Stansbury’s commitment to advocating for her constituents and holding elected officials accountable. As debates over tax policy and potential financial misconduct continue in Congress, Stansbury remains dedicated to fighting for the interests of New Mexicans and ensuring transparency and integrity in government actions.
