Stansbury refuses AIPAC money and was listed among '83 in Congress NOT Owned By AIPAC.' She called for a bilateral ceasefire in Gaza in January 2024, signed a letter urging President Biden to withhold military aid to Israel after the killing of World Central Kitchen aid workers, supported the Sanders JRD to block offensive arms sales, and boycotted Netanyahu's July 2024 address to Congress. She co-sponsored the Khanna-Massie War Powers Resolution and was one of the most outspoken advocates for constraining Trump's war-making authority in Iran.

[auto-downgraded: both claims come from the same source host] Stansbury simultaneously receives JStreetPAC funding (a pro-Israel PAC that supports military aid) while signing letters to withhold military aid to Israel and calling for a ceasefire. This dual posture — pro-Israel, pro-peace — is internally consistent with JStreet's platform but creates cross-pressure between maintaining a pro-Israel voting record and responding to progressive constituent demands for conditioning or cutting off military aid. She navigated this by calling for 'bilateral ceasefire' early (January 2024) while continuing to support Israel's right to self-defense.

Stansbury voted nay on the Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act (September 2024), which would make non-U.S. nationals convicted of sex offenses or domestic violence inadmissible and deportable. She was one of 158 Democrats to oppose it, drawing sharp criticism from the New Mexico GOP: 'Stansbury and Leger Fernandez have voted to protect illegal immigrants who commit crimes in the U.S.'

[auto-downgraded: both claims come from the same source host] Stansbury campaigns as a champion of women and children — she is endorsed by EMILY's List and Planned Parenthood and fights for reproductive rights — yet voted against a bill named the 'Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act' that would mandate deportation for non-citizens convicted of sex crimes and domestic violence. The New Mexico GOP repeatedly attacked her for this vote, claiming she 'voted to protect illegal immigrants who commit crimes.' Stansbury did not issue a press release explaining her vote, leaving her position on this specific legislation ambiguous.

[ Show full deviation summary ]
Stansbury voted against the $26B Israel supplemental and against the OBBBA (which included defense-adjacent provisions), and her progressive caucus positioning creates tension with a district economically dependent on defense and national-lab funding. She has supported Ukraine aid and typically backs NDAA/defense authorization bills, partially offsetting this.
5
Medicaid Expansion & ACA Protections
District priority: 92/100 Alignment: +95
District pattern: NM-01 has the highest Medicaid enrollment rate (21.9%) of any NM district; strong bipartisan support for protecting Medicaid, ACA subsidies, and safety-net coverage given high uninsured and low-income populations
60
Federal Budget, Shutdown & Government Funding
District priority: 85/100 Alignment: +40
District pattern: NM-01 has high federal employment (Sandia, Kirtland, federal agencies); voters strongly oppose shutdowns that furlough federal workers and disrupt lab operations; support pragmatic funding deals
Stansbury voted NAY on the November 2025 Continuing Resolution shutdown deal, prioritizing healthcare protections over reopening government. This conflicts with district interest in avoiding shutdowns that harm 32,000+ federal/lab workers. Her OMB experience…
[ Show full deviation summary ]
Stansbury voted NAY on the November 2025 Continuing Resolution shutdown deal, prioritizing healthcare protections over reopening government. This conflicts with district interest in avoiding shutdowns that harm 32,000+ federal/lab workers. Her OMB experience suggests she understands the tradeoff but chose progressive caucus solidarity.
15
Climate Change & Energy Transition
District priority: 80/100 Alignment: +85
District pattern: NM has significant oil & gas (Permian Basin) but Albuquerque/Democratic voters strongly support renewable energy, methane regulation, and public lands conservation; state has ambitious clean energy mandate
Stansbury's progressive record aligns with urban climate priorities; however, she must balance against state oil & gas employment. Slight deviation if district includes energy-sector workers concerned about regulatory impacts.
15
Public Lands, Water & Environmental Conservation
District priority: 78/100 Alignment: +85
District pattern: NM voters strongly support public lands protection, Rio Grande water management, and wildfire mitigation; urban Albuquerque voters particularly value open space and national monuments
Stansbury generally supports conservation and public lands protections. Minor deviation if she prioritizes national progressive climate agenda over local water/land management concerns specific to NM.
5
Labor Rights & Workers' Protections
District priority: 75/100 Alignment: +95
District pattern: NM is a union-friendly state with relatively high union density in public sector and construction; NM-01 voters support minimum wage increases, collective bargaining, and OSHA enforcement
10
Education & Federal Student Aid
District priority: 72/100 Alignment: +90
District pattern: NM has high rates of poverty and low educational attainment; strong support for Pell Grants, Title I funding, and student loan relief; UNM and CNM are major district institutions
10
Immigration & Border Security
District priority: 70/100 Alignment: +90
District pattern: NM-01 is a Democratic-leaning urban district (Albuquerque) with a large Hispanic/Latino population (~45%); voters favor humane immigration policy and oppose harsh enforcement measures, though border-state dynamics create some moderation
25
Crime, Public Safety & Criminal Justice Reform
District priority: 68/100 Alignment: +75
District pattern: Albuquerque has experienced elevated violent crime; voters support both public safety funding and police accountability; progressive base favors reform while moderates favor enforcement
Stansbury's progressive record on criminal justice reform may diverge from moderate Albuquerque voters and law enforcement constituents concerned about crime rates. She balances with public safety funding support but may be perceived as insufficiently tough…
[ Show full deviation summary ]
Stansbury's progressive record on criminal justice reform may diverge from moderate Albuquerque voters and law enforcement constituents concerned about crime rates. She balances with public safety funding support but may be perceived as insufficiently tough on crime.
5
Ukraine & European Security Aid
District priority: 60/100 Alignment: +95
District pattern: NM-01 Democratic voters broadly support Ukraine aid as part of national security consensus; defense-industry constituents at Sandia/Kirtland may benefit from supplemental defense spending
10
Israel & Foreign Military Aid
District priority: 55/100 Alignment: +90
District pattern: NM-01 Democratic primary voters lean progressive and increasingly skeptical of unconditional military aid to Israel; general election voters more divided; Jewish community in Albuquerque is small (~1-2%)
20
War Powers & Executive Military Authority
District priority: 50/100 Alignment: +80
District pattern: Mixed; progressive Democrats support war powers restrictions, but defense-sector workers and moderate voters may view constraints as undermining national security missions at Kirtland/Sandia
Stansbury voted yea on the Iran War Powers Resolution (March 2026), consistent with progressive district base but potentially at odds with defense-installation constituents who prefer executive flexibility. Her OMB background may inform nuanced views.

Calculation Methodology

Contract values are summed from documented money flow chains where this entity appears as a source or destination node. Amounts are drawn from USASpending.gov, FEC filings, SEC EDGAR, or LD-2 lobbying registrations.

Donor contributions aggregate documented amounts from the donor_interests table, sourced from FEC individual and PAC contribution filings.

Connected officials are elected officials in our database with a mapped relationship (lobbying, board membership, campaign contribution, etc.) to this entity.

Annualised flow represents the total documented dollar amount traced through money flow hops involving this entity. Where hop-level amounts are unavailable, the chain-level documented total is used as a conservative upper bound.

All figures are drawn from public filings. Estimates are conservative — undisclosed transactions, dark money, and vanish-point hops are excluded from totals. This is a minimum documented floor, not a ceiling.

✓ verified Pending Review [constituency_baseline] District summary: New Mexico's 1st Congressional District encompasses the central area of New Mexico, including most of Bernalillo County (Albuquerque), all of Torrance County, and parts of Sandoval, Santa Fe, and Valencia counties. It includes almost three-fourths of Albuquerque and several Native American pueblos including Laguna Pueblo and Sandia Pueblo, as well as the Tohajiilee Navajo Reservation. Home to approximately 712,000 constituents, it is the most Democratic district in a state with an all-Democratic congressional delegation (Cook PVI D+5). The district is majority-minority: 41.8% Hispanic (297,000), 44.9% White (non-Hispanic), 5.1% Native American, and 2.8% Black. The median household income is $71,236 — above the national median but below the state average — with a 13.5% poverty rate (significantly above the 12.4% national average). Homeownership is 66.7%, median property value $304,400, and median rent $1,132. Only 36.1% of adults hold a bachelor's degree. About 21.9% of residents rely on Medicaid and 7.54% are uninsured. The largest employment sectors are Health Care & Social Assistance (52,094 workers), Professional, Scientific & Technical Services (39,689), and Educational Services (36,166), anchored by the University of New Mexico, Sandia National Laboratories, Kirtland Air Force Base, Presbyterian Healthcare Services, and Lovelace Health System. Stansbury succeeded Deb Haaland, who was appointed U.S. Secretary of the Interior in 2021. She won the 2024 general election with 56.2% of the vote.
Added: 03 May 2026
✓ verified Primary Source Voted nay on H.R. 7909 (Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act (September 2024)) on 2024-09-18: Stansbury was one of 158 House Democrats to vote against legislation that would make non-U.S. nationals convicted of sex offenses or domestic violence inadmissible and deportable. The bill passed 266-158 with 51 Democrats in support. The New Mexico GOP used this vote repeatedly in attack ads and press releases, stating she 'voted to protect illegal immigrants who commit sex crimes against women and children.' Her silence on this vote — she did not issue a press release explaining her opposition — created a vulnerability that the GOP exploited. For a member endorsed by EMILY's List and Planned Parenthood who campaigns as a champion of women, this vote created a persistent political liability in her D+5 district.
Date: 2024-09-18 Added: 03 May 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: H.R. 7909
✓ verified Primary Source Voted nay on H.R. 22 (SAVE Act (Safeguard American Voter Eligibility, July 2024)) on 2024-07-10: Stansbury voted nay on legislation requiring documentary proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote. The Heritage Foundation and New Mexico GOP attacked her vote, with the RPNM saying she 'want[s] illegal immigrants to vote in our elections.' Her NM-01 district is 41.8% Hispanic and 95.9% citizen — documentation requirements could disproportionately burden minority, elderly, and low-income voters who lack easy access to passports or birth certificates. The Piñon Post headlined its coverage: 'All three of NM's congressional reps. want illegals to vote in U.S. elections.' The AFL-CIO opposed the bill. The bill passed 221-198 with only 5 Democratic votes. The vote aligned with Democratic opposition to voting restrictions and Stansbury's progressive civil-rights positioning.
Date: 2024-07-10 Added: 03 May 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: H.R. 22
✓ verified AI Inference Voted nay on H.R. 9745 (Government Funding Continuing Resolution — November 2025 Shutdown Deal) on 2025-11-12: Stansbury voted nay on the Senate-brokered deal to end the 43-day government shutdown, calling it 'a raw deal for Americans that does not address the Republican healthcare crisis.' She was reportedly one of the lawmakers who said 'People are [expletive] pissed' on a private Democratic call after eight Senate Democrats voted with Republicans. All three New Mexico House Democrats opposed the deal. Her opposition to a compromise that lacked ACA enhanced premium tax credit extensions placed her in the progressive wing that refused to accept a deal without healthcare protections.
Date: 2025-11-12 Added: 03 May 2026
✓ verified AI Inference Voted nay on H.R. 8034 (Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024 ($26 billion military aid)) on 2024-04-20: Stansbury was one of only 58 House members — and one of the most prominent Democrats — to vote against $26 billion in unconditional military aid to Israel. She simultaneously signed a letter urging President Biden and Secretary Blinken to withhold military aid, citing the deaths of 32,000 Palestinians and 7 World Central Kitchen aid workers. She refused AIPAC money and boycotted Netanyahu's July 2024 address to Congress. JStreetPAC ($43K), her largest PAC donor, supported a two-state solution and endorsed her. AIPAC does not appear among her contributors. This vote, combined with her January 2024 ceasefire call, placed her in the progressive vanguard on Israel policy — notably without taking AIPAC money, unlike many Democrats who voted yea on this bill while receiving AIPAC contributions.
Date: 2024-04-20 Added: 03 May 2026
✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea on H.R. 8035 (Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024 ($61 billion military aid)) on 2024-04-20: Stansbury voted yea on $61 billion in Ukraine military assistance, joining the bipartisan majority (311-112). She has been a consistent Ukraine supporter since the Russian invasion, reflecting a progressive internationalism that supports defensive military aid against authoritarian aggression. Her vote distinguished her from the isolationist GOP majority while aligning with Democratic leadership and the Biden administration's foreign policy.
Date: 2024-04-20 Added: 03 May 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: H.R. 8035
✓ verified Primary Source Voted nay on H.R. 29 (Laken Riley Act (119th Congress, January 2025)) on 2025-01-07: Stansbury voted nay on mandatory ICE detention for undocumented immigrants accused of nonviolent crimes including shoplifting. All three New Mexico House Democrats (Stansbury, Vasquez, Leger Fernandez) voted nay — notably for a border state with significant immigration challenges. The New Mexico GOP condemned her vote multiple times, saying she 'once again voted against this vital legislation' and 'voted against deporting illegal immigrants who commit sexual and violent crimes.' Her NM-01 district is 8.03% foreign-born (57,200 people), 95.9% U.S. citizen, with 21.1% of households speaking a non-English language — predominantly Spanish (107,863 households). The vote was both party-aligned and constituent-aligned for a district with large Hispanic and immigrant communities.
Date: 2025-01-07 Added: 03 May 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: H.R. 29
✓ verified Primary Source Voted nay on H.R. 1 (One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) — House final passage, July 2025) on 2025-07-03: Stansbury voted nay on legislation the CBO projected would add $3.4 trillion to deficits and cut approximately $1 trillion from Medicaid and SNAP. She released a video statement slamming the bill for 'slashing Medicaid' and 'gutting food assistance to give billionaires permanent tax breaks.' Her NM-01 district has 13.5% poverty, 21.9% of residents on Medicaid, and 7.54% uninsured — meaning the bill's healthcare cuts would directly impact tens of thousands of her constituents. She held a town hall with Sen. Ben Ray Luján to warn constituents about the GOP attacks on Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. The AFL-CIO, which gave her a 100% score, opposed the bill. All 212 Democrats plus 2 Republicans voted nay. Only 2 Republicans voted nay. The SBA Pro-Life America scorecard criticized her for opposing what it called the defunding of 'Big Abortion businesses' through H.R. 1.
Date: 2025-07-03 Added: 03 May 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: H.R. 1
✓ verified Primary Source [disclosure] New Mexico has one of the highest rates of violent crime in the country. Albuquerque set a homicide record in 2022 and has persistently high rates of domestic violence. Stansbury's votes against immigration enforcement legislation have been used by Republican opponents to paint her as soft on crime against women — a charge the RPNM has made repeatedly in press releases targeting her.
✓ verified Primary Source [vote] Stansbury voted nay on the Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act (September 2024), which would make non-U.S. nationals convicted of sex offenses or domestic violence inadmissible and deportable. She was one of 158 Democrats to oppose it, drawing sharp criticism from the New Mexico GOP: 'Stansbury and Leger Fernandez have voted to protect illegal immigrants who commit crimes in the U.S.'
✓ verified Pending Review [statement] Stansbury also stated she 'stands with the people of Israel' and condemned Hamas's October 7 attack as 'horrific violence.' She supports Israel's right to self-defense and a two-state solution. JStreetPAC — a pro-Israel, pro-peace PAC — is her second-largest organizational donor at $43,417. She has been a consistent supporter of Israel's right to exist while opposing the Netanyahu government's military operations and calling for conditioning of U.S. military aid.
Date: 2023-10-09 Added: 03 May 2026
✓ verified Pending Review [statement] Stansbury refuses AIPAC money and was listed among '83 in Congress NOT Owned By AIPAC.' She called for a bilateral ceasefire in Gaza in January 2024, signed a letter urging President Biden to withhold military aid to Israel after the killing of World Central Kitchen aid workers, supported the Sanders JRD to block offensive arms sales, and boycotted Netanyahu's July 2024 address to Congress. She co-sponsored the Khanna-Massie War Powers Resolution and was one of the most outspoken advocates for constraining Trump's war-making authority in Iran.
Date: 2024-01-18 Added: 03 May 2026
✓ verified Primary Source Stansbury serves as Ranking Member of the House Natural Resources Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, is on the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability (appointed January 2023), and is the Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency (DOGE).

✓ verified Primary Source Stansbury is a scientist and former ecology instructor. She earned a B.A. in human ecology and natural science from Saint Mary's College of California and an M.S. in development sociology from Cornell University. She worked as a STEM educator, researcher on land and water issues, and served as a staffer on the U.S. Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources and in the White House Office of Management and Budget. She received the 2021 U.S. Water Prize for Outstanding Public Official.
✓ verified Primary Source Quiver Quantitative estimates Stansbury's net worth as not readily calculable from disclosed assets — she has no publicly traded individual stock holdings and no trades listed in MarketBeat's STOCK Act tracking. A 2022 estimate placed her net worth below $1 million. OpenSecrets 2018 financial disclosure: she has relatively modest means compared to most members of Congress. She does NOT trade individual stocks and co-sponsors legislation to ban congressional stock trading.
✓ verified Primary Source 2024 cycle top PACS: ActBlue ($117,450 in 2,077 payments), EMILY's List ($5,000), Human Rights Campaign PAC ($4,000), League of Conservation Voters ($3,500), Planned Parenthood ($2,500), and AFSCME ($1,500). Her campaign does not accept corporate PAC money. Total outside spending supporting Stansbury: $52,652 (Planned Parenthood, LCV, AFSCME, Sierra Club).
✓ verified Primary Source Top career contributor: University of New Mexico at $55,412 (all individuals). Second: JStreetPAC at $43,417 ($38,917 individuals, $4,500 PAC). Labor unions dominate: Carpenters & Joiners Union ($25,000), IBEW ($25,000), Lobo PAC ($25,000). AIPAC does NOT appear among her top 20 contributors — Stansbury refuses AIPAC money and was listed as one of '83 in Congress NOT Owned By AIPAC' on the Rosenberg Substack in 2022. She is endorsed by JStreetPAC, which supports a two-state solution.
