Nicole Chavez Defends Her Record and Takes on Lisa Curtis","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":3486,"description":"In this episode of The Chile Wire, we sit down with New Mexico State Representative Nicole Chavez for a candid conversation about her reelection race against Lisa Curtis and the issues shaping the future of New Mexico. Chavez responds to criticism that she is \"out of touch\" with everyday New Mexicans and discusses the differences between her record and her opponent’s positions on healthcare, medical malpractice reform, and House Bill 99.\nWith decades of experience in healthcare and a deeply personal connection to New Mexico’s public safety crisis, Chavez explains why she believes the state needs meaningful medical malpractice reform, stronger accountability for criminals, and a justice system that listens to victims and their families. She also shares her perspective on the challenges facing New Mexico’s schools, the need for economic development, and why she believes state and local leadership matter more than national political debates when it comes to solving the problems New Mexicans face every day.\nThe conversation also tackles Project Jupiter and data centers, the controversy surrounding legislative salaries and term limits, and the importance of holding elected officials accountable for their records and votes. As Election Day approaches, Chavez urges New Mexicans to research their candidates and make their voices heard at the ballot box. 🌶️🗳️\nVisit Rep.
