August 9—Today, President Joe Biden gave a speech at the Arcosa Wind Towers manufacturing facility in Belen New Mexico.
The following is a statement from Republican Party of New Mexico spokeswoman Ash Soular in response to the President’s speech:
“It’s disappointing President Biden used his trip to our beautiful state as nothing more than a photo opportunity. The President’s speech was completely out-of-touch with the real issues New Mexicans face.
He didn’t address our Governor’s failing education system. He didn’t address his Interior Secretary Deb Haaland’s horrible decision to obstruct the financial future of Navajo allottees. He didn’t address our border communities or offer them any solutions to stop the child traffickers, deadly drug smugglers, and cartels who are exploiting our open border. He didn’t address our oil and gas workers, who produce the largest source of revenue in our state and whose jobs are threatened by his administration.
Instead, the President came to brag about his ‘Bidenomics’ which has only resulted in higher prices at the pump, escalating food costs and less money in the pockets of hard-working New Mexicans.”
