I have officially announced my candidacy for Congress in New Mexico’s Second Congressional District.
Nothing is more important than protecting the future of our country for generations to come – and we can do that by securing our borders, stopping out-of-control spending, bringing down energy costs for families, and returning to the conservative principles that made our country the greatest in the world.
I want to thank Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy, for joining me in Las Cruces on Monday to kick off this race and for every enthusiastic patriot that came to share in our energy.
I am so encouraged by the massive show of support for our campaign, and I thank God for the energy, determination, and passion he’s given me to serve the people of our amazing district.
I am honored and proud to be endorsed right off the bat by our House GOP Leadership team! Please take a moment to read why I have earned their support.
Speaker Kevin McCarthy:
“Yvette Herrell is a fearless conservative leader – and New Mexico needs her back in Congress. During her time in Washington, Yvette always put her constituents first: working hard to deliver results for New Mexico families and standing up for fiscal responsibility, free markets, and constitutional rights. Yvette has my full endorsement and I look forward to serving with her again next Congress.”
Majority Leader Steve Scalise:
“I am proud to endorse my friend Yvette Herrell for Congress in New Mexico’s Second District. Yvette is a humble and hardworking leader who proved her effectiveness as legislator while serving in the New Mexico House and then in Congress. As a small business woman, Yvette is a champion for good paying jobs and the New Mexico industries that create them, and is a strong advocate for the conservative principles that make our country great.”
Majority Whip Tom Emmer:
“Yvette Herrell’s work ethic and perseverance are an inspiration to us all, and I am excited to endorse her for Congress today. Yvette is a tireless campaigner, a knowledgeable and principled legislator, and a true advocate for New Mexico’s Second District. I am proud to stand with Yvette and eagerly anticipate working with her again in the next Congress.”
GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik:
“Our country is on the brink because of failed Far Left policies and New Mexico needs my good friend and conservative fighter Yvette Herrell more than ever. Yvette is a rock solid conservative who puts America First and prioritizes results for hardworking families over partisan politics. I am fully backing Yvette in her race and encourage all voters to rally behind her as we work together to flip this seat!”
The Democrat Machine is already coming after me with everything they’ve got, which is why I need your help starting TODAY.
As we gear up for the fight, I need to ensure this campaign has the resources needed to WIN. Joining the battle early and investing early in a campaign can make all the difference in the world. I’m counting on my top patriots, like you, to be DAY ONE supporters in my campaign for Congress.
Thank you, Fellow American – Now, let’s get to work!
God Bless,
Yvette Herrell
