NMPolitics.net was able to interview and profile GOP 1st Congressional District candidate Jon Barela in May when he visited Las Cruces, but I haven’t been able to interview his Democratic opponent, Martin Heinrich, for a similar profile.

At any rate, that’s why I thought it was important to point you to The New Mexico Independent’s new profile of Heinrich. The article by Marjorie Childress is a good look at what the freshman congressman has done during his first term in Washington.
