Zamora Campaign Launches New TV Ad: “New Mexico Deserves Better”
August 24, 2026
New Zamora campaign ad ties together Leger Fernandez’s lobbying background, her 2022 STOCK Act violation, her rising net worth, and her vote against banning insider trading in Congress
NEW MEXICO’S 3RD CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT — The campaign of Rep. Martin Zamora, Republican candidate for New Mexico’s Third Congressional District, today announced the launch of a new television advertisement, “New Mexico Deserves Better,” spotlighting a pattern of self-interest by incumbent Rep. Teresa Leger Fernandez. You can see the ad here:
The 30-second spot traces Leger Fernandez’s record from her time as a registered New Mexico lobbyist through her tenure in Congress:
For 18 years before taking office, Leger Fernandez was a registered lobbyist in New Mexico.
In 2022, Leger Fernandez violated the federal STOCK Act, disclosing a stock trade more than a year after the law’s 45-day deadline.
From taking office in 2021 to 2024, Leger Fernandez’s net worth grew nearly 60%.
Last month, Leger Fernandez voted against H.R. 7008, the Stop Insider Trading Act, a bill to curb Congressional stock trading, which passed the House 232-198 with bipartisan support.
“New Mexicans deserve a representative who plays by the same rules everyone else has to,” said Martin Zamora. “Teresa Leger Fernandez spent nearly two decades as a lobbyist, and now she’s spent five years in Congress treating disclosure laws like they’re optional. When Congress had the chance to stop insider trading once and for all, she voted no. New Mexico deserves better.”
The ad is currently running across the district and is available to view on Martin Zamora’s social media platforms: on X at @ZamoraforNM, Instagram @ZamoraforNM, and on Facebook at www.facebook.com/martinzamora4nm.
