Rep. Melanie Stansbury, a U.S. Congress member representing New Mexico's 1st district, shared several updates on social media regarding her activities and concerns as of March 26, 2025.

On March 26 at 16:36 UTC, Rep. Stansbury announced plans for upcoming town halls in Corrales and Placitas, inviting community members to participate. She emphasized the importance of engaging with constituents throughout her district. "Corrales and Placitas: Join us this Friday for more town halls in your communities! We're touring just about every inch of the district, and you're up next! We'd love to hear from you!"

Later that day, at 17:54 UTC, she expressed criticism over what she perceives as misaligned priorities within the government amidst various national issues. Specifically, she questioned the focus on repealing refrigerator efficiency standards while significant challenges such as economic instability and defense department controversies persist. "The economy is in chaos, the Defense Department is trying to cover up leaking war plans in a group chat, and Trump and Elon Musk are dismantling vital programs….and what is the GOP using precious Floor time on this week? Repealing refrigerator efficiency standards."

Finally, at 20:48 UTC on the same day, Rep. Stansbury provided additional details about the Corrales town hall meeting location and encouraged attendees to prepare for an outdoor gathering under New Mexico’s spring weather conditions. "Friends, an update on the Corrales town hall: we'll be outside soaking up the beautiful New Mexico spring! Bring your umbrellas, camping chairs, picnic blankets, etc., and let’s chat!"
