Deb Haaland, former Biden Interior secretary, launches New Mexico governor bid

Former Interior Secretary Deb Haaland has officially announced her bid for governor of New Mexico, marking one of the first major political moves by a member of former President Joe Biden’s administration since he left office. Haaland, who previously served as the first Native American Cabinet secretary under Biden, launched her campaign with a video highlighting her accomplishments in Congress and as Secretary of the Interior.

During her time in office, Haaland focused on supporting New Mexico businesses, promoting clean energy jobs, and advocating for water and infrastructure projects in rural communities. As a former member of the House and chair of New Mexico’s Democratic Party, Haaland brings a wealth of political experience to her gubernatorial campaign.

With current Democratic Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham term-limited and Senator Martin Heinrich opting not to run for governor, Haaland’s path to the general election appears relatively clear. She is the first major candidate to enter the race and has been widely expected to run for governor.

While no Republicans have announced their candidacy yet, potential contenders such as former Rep. Yvette Herrell and Nella Domenici could enter the race. New Mexico currently has no statewide GOP officeholders, with Democrats holding all seats in the state’s congressional delegation.

In her campaign announcement video, Haaland emphasized her background and struggles, highlighting her upbringing in a military family, experience as a single mother, and 35 years of sobriety. She emphasized the resilience and strength that she believes defines New Mexico residents.

Haaland is part of a trend among former Biden administration officials seeking elected office, with figures like former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg considering a Senate run in Michigan and rumors of former Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo eyeing another gubernatorial bid in Rhode Island.
