Congressman Gabe Vasquez represents New Mexico’s 2nd Congressional District, a dynamic region stretching from Albuquerque through the communities of Southern New Mexico and along the U.S.–Mexico border. A first-generation American and long-time champion for working families, Vasquez has built his career around expanding opportunity, fostering innovation, and ensuring New Mexicans benefit from the technologies shaping the future.
In Congress, Vasquez is a leading voice for forward-thinking technology policy and emerging-industry innovation. A strong advocate for research and development, Vasquez champions New Mexico’s world-class scientific and defense institutions—from the Very Large Array to Sandia National Laboratories—and pushes to expand technology transfer, advanced manufacturing, and STEM-driven job creation across the state.
Vasquez also recognizes that technology must work for everyone. He has fought for rural broadband expansion, investments in rural and border security technology, and modern tools at ports of entry—all essential to strengthening economic competitiveness, public safety, and connectivity across New Mexico’s diverse communities.
Throughout his service, Vasquez has remained focused on building a stable, modern economy rooted in innovation, job creation, and expanded opportunity. Whether supporting cutting-edge research, championing small businesses, or pressing for digital accountability and consumer protections, Congressman Gabe Vasquez is working to support the transformative technologies shaping the 21st century.
