Dr. Jon Hill is running against incumbent Willie Madrid in the Democratic Primary for House District 53. Hill has worked as a teacher, special educator, and principal. Hill’s campaign is motivated by his lifelong passion for public service, including as a county superintendent, twice elected school board member, and member of multiple state and national boards.
He has also served as an Examiner for the Baldwin Performance Excellence Program, a member of the state teacher licensing board, and chaired the committee studying and reporting on teacher supply and demand, which also prompted him to work directly with the Speaker of House to craft a school funding model that contributed to the blueprint the state has used to ensure every student in the state has an equal opportunity.
Hill’s priorities include education, environment, ethics reform, and workforce development and the economy. He supports the Paid Family Medical Leave, an Environmental Rights Amendment to the state constitution, and a just transition to move New Mexico away from our reliance on fossil fuels while ensuring families and workers who depend on those jobs are not forgotten about in the process.
As part of a just transition, Hill is also interested in infrastructure development for rural areas of the state to make sure that rapidly expanding technology, including electric vehicle infrastructure, is available everywhere.
Based on his commitments to a just transition away from oil and gas, support for paid family medical leave, and support for refinements to the State Ethics Commission, we recommend Dr. Jon Hill for House District 53.
