JUNE 14, ALBUQUERQUE, NM—A new report from The Washington Examiner exposed Democratic Senator Martin Heinrich's Wall Street hypocrisy. Despite empty attacks on his political opponent, Senator Heinrich has taken over $330,000 from PACs tied to the largest banks such as UBS, the American Bankers Association, Citigroup, Blackrock, Wells Fargo, and $450,000 from executives at influential firms such as Bain Capital, Blackrock, Blackstone, Lone Pine Capital, and Schooner Capital. Heinrich recently wrote to his supporters in a fundraising email that he's "not in this fight to prop up Wall Street."

"Senator Martin Heinrich is not only bought and paid for by big banks and Wall Street executives, but he's also willing to project and lie about these facts in a desperate attempt to preserve his political career," said Republican Party of New Mexico Chairman Steve Pearce. "While Senator Heinrich sits back and slings hypocritical attacks, Nella Domenici is out meeting with New Mexicans like the Hermit's Peak/Calf Canyon fire victims and working on real solutions. Maryland Marty has been a career politician for twenty years and has only benefitted his privileged special interests and their agendas while making life harder for everyday New Mexicans. The people of our state want a leader who they know truly cares for them and their struggles, and that person is Nella Domenici."

Heinrich's hypocrisy comes on the heels of new reports showing the New Mexico U.S. Senate race to be more and more competitive.
