Rep. Vasquez Statement on President’s Primetime Address to the Nation

WASHINGTON, D.C. – On July 16, 2026, U.S. Representative Gabe Vasquez (NM-02) released the following statement in response to the President’s primetime address to the nation:

“New Mexicans are suffering from the President’s failed economic policy — from skyrocketing gas prices to higher grocery costs to inflated healthcare — and the President is still focused on denying the 2020 election. I urge the President to focus on the pressing needs of all Americans and stop sowing doubt about the integrity of our elections and meddling with the midterms. The President’s focus should be on making Americans’ lives better, not jamming a voter disenfranchisement bill through Congress. New Mexicans see right through it.”
