U.S. Rep. Teresa Leger Fernández, D-N.M., joins “Conversations Different” to discuss legislation she's been pursuing in the House. She talks about what it's been like trying to get legislation passed amid Republican infighting and stresses the need for the U.S. to continue to support Ukraine in its war against Russia. She also hits on the progress of legislation and initiatives to help New Mexicans, from continued support for those impacted by the Hermits Peak/Calf Canyon Fire, to efforts to provide a path to home ownership for first-time homebuyers, to the work to expand the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act to include the Downwinders and other New Mexicans who have long been left out of the legislation.
