U.S. Representative Teresa Leger Fernández has recently posted a series of messages on her social media account, addressing political and cultural issues ranging from food security to honoring ancestors.
On October 31, 2025, Leger Fernández criticized the Trump administration’s approach to food assistance, stating, "It shouldn’t take a court ruling for the Trump administration to agree to feed Americans in need. The courts agree: no matter how hard he tries, Trump cannot use hunger as a political tool—it’s illegal and cruel. Republicans in Congress may not stand up against Trump, but https://t.co/UFPTqt4rqt".
Later that day, she shared another post containing only a link: "https://t.co/5NdlrAqcjY" (October 31, 2025).
On November 2, 2025, Leger Fernández marked a cultural observance with the message: "Today, we celebrate the life of loved ones—nuestros ancestros—who have passed and remember that death is not the end. We carry their memory with us. https://t.co/4IVvTgewjQ".
Leger Fernández represents New Mexico's 3rd congressional district and has secured multiple electoral victories in recent years. In the 2024 general election, she defeated Sharon Clahchischilliage with approximately 41.8% of the vote compared to Clahchischilliage's 43.7%. She also won previous elections against Alexis Martinez Johnson in both 2022 and 2020.
