Protecting our jobs, our schools, and our energy independence
New Mexico should not be forced to choose between a thriving economy and a secure future. Larry Marker’s all-of-the-above strategy starts by defending the industry that funds classrooms and anchors rural communities.
- Stop federal overreach and permitting paralysis.
- Protect the education funding families rely on.
- Make New Mexico a leader in oil, gas, hydrogen, and nuclear innovation.

Protecting New Mexico families from fentanyl and violent crime
The first duty of government is to keep its citizens safe. For too long, New Mexico’s border has been a gateway for criminal cartels, human traffickers, and a flood of lethal fentanyl that is devastating our families and claiming the lives of our children. While progress has been made to secure our southern border, our work is far from over.
- Shut down the fentanyl pipeline.
- Support Border Patrol and local law enforcement.
- Oppose policies that shield violent offenders.

Stopping lawfare and agency abuse against New Mexico agriculture
New Mexico agriculture is a foundation of rural life, food production, and land stewardship. Larry Marker’s message is that farmers and livestock producers should not be crushed by unelected agencies using regulation, delay, and selective enforcement as weapons.
- Stop regulatory abuse against farmers and livestock producers.
- Defend grazing rights, water access, and working land.
- Push back on law fare from unaccountable agencies.
