The three women elected in New Mexico include incumbent Democrat Deb Haaland (Laguna Pueblo), who will serve her second term in Congress representing the first district; she became one of the first Indigenous women elected to Congress back in 2018. The other two women elected to the state’s House this term are Cherokee Republican Yvette Herrell, representing the state’s second congressional district, and Latina Democrat Teresa Leger Fernandez, representing the third congressional district. “I’m very happy and proud that the voters of the first congressional district, once again, elected me to represent them,” Haaland tells Vogue. “There’s a lot of work that’s yet to be done before this term ends. I will be continuing a lot of work that I started into the 117th Congress; if we didn’t get legislations passed, we’ll need to start all over again, so we’ll be busy reintroducing bills and so forth.” During her time as a Congresswoman, Haaland has passed bills concerning climate change—her 30 by 30 resolution is meant to conserve 30% of U.S. lands and ocean by 2030—and putting more focus on missing and murdered Indigenous women, among other efforts. . The wins for Haaland and Herrell in New Mexico particularly fall in line with this year’s record-high number of Indigenous women who ran for office. “There’s actually three Native women in Kansas who are going to the Kansas State Legislature, so that’s very exciting,” Haaland says of the results so far. (One of Kansas’s elects is Democratic incumbent Sharice Davids, who is Ho-Chunk and was elected to Congress with Haaland two years ago.) Going forward, Haaland says that her main priority will be addressing COVID-19 infections in the state, which have disproportionally affected Native communities. “We’re still in the middle of a horrible pandemic,” she says. “We’re still fighting the worst health crisis that our country’s ever seen. President Trump doesn’t believe in science—he’s not taking it seriously. That’s why it’s run rampant across our country. Regardless of what he does or says, it’s our responsibility as lawmakers to to pay attention to this.」11月5日 7時50分
