As your representative, Harlan is committed to ensuring that state government fulfills its most basic promises: to preserve our ways of life, to protect our families, and to help all generations prosper.
As a small business owner, I see every day how overregulation and high taxes strangle growth and opportunity. I fight to simplify New Mexicos tax code, end the Gross Receipts Tax, and champion pro-business policies that make our state competitive and strong.
I stand unapologetically with our Oil and Gas Industry, the backbone of our economy. This industry generates billions, over $13 billion in 2023 alone, that funds our schools, infrastructure, and critical services. I will protect it from attacks and ensure it continues to power New Mexico's future.
For decades, bureaucratic overreach and preservationist agendas have undermined Western values and the livelihoods of New Mexico's farmers and ranchers. The Biden Administrations "30 x 30" mandate threatens our food supply, rural economies, and freedoms with its vague, overreaching goals.
Stewardship of our lands is a core Conservative value. Healthy, productive land thrives under local management, not federal control. I will fight to protect our Western heritage, rural communities, and the rights of New Mexicos land stewards against this administration's overreach.
We must preserve our shared values and western heritage while fighting the current Administration's bureaucratic overreach and I intend to do that on your behalf in Santa Fe.
I want to encourage traditional values of faith, family, and personal responsibility. We are losing ground with family values and the nuclear family that has been the backbone of the American story. I believe we are in a spiritual battle fighting for our children. Its up to us to fight todays battles so they dont have to.
I want individuals in District 56 to respect the free exercise of religion. I intend to defend the self-evident truth, "that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."
As American citizens we have a right to protect our families and keep them safe. We have a right to purchase, carry, and use firearms whether it is for hunting, recreation, or personal safety.
The Government is slowly chipping away at lawful citizens rights by creating legislation that delays purchases and restricts where we are allowed to carry our firearms. They want to hold firearm manufacturers responsible for criminal activity and tax our ammunition.
We must stop radical politicians from destroying our Constitutional rights. Its time we punish law breakers, treat criminals like criminals, and put them behind bars.
We are at a serious crossroad on our southern border. We are literally being invaded the influx of illegal immigrants has posed a threat to our civil society. Americans are being murdered, victimized by theft, and feel the financial burden of this enormous amount of illegal immigration.
We must close our border, restore order, vet immigrants and start the legal processing to citizenship in a lawful manner
