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.Dr. Jon Hill

Willie Madrid is running for re-election in the Democratic Primary for House District 53. He has served in the legislature since 2018 and is a member of the House Education Committee and House Transportation, Public Works & Capital Improvements Committee. Madrid did not return our questionnaire so all information provided is from public sources.
Madrid has worked as an Instructional Assistant for Gadsden Independent Public School District for over a decade, and he is also a coach and community leader in Chaparral. His key priorities are education, infrastructure, and jobs. During his tenure, Madrid has sponsored legislation to ensure students who are unable to pay for school lunches do not go hungry, along with salary increases for educational assistants and tax credits for retired firefighters.
While Madrid has championed some important bills during his time in office, he has voted against key reforms in recent legislative sessions. In 2024 he voted against prohibiting firearms at polling locations (SB5), clean energy standards (HB41), paid family medical leave (SB8), and establishing waiting periods for gun purchases (HB129). In 2023, he voted against establishing penalties for negligence in leaving a firearm accessible to minors (HB9). In 2022 he voted against prohibiting intimidation of election officials (SB144), and in 2021 against Paid Sick Leave (HB20). While those bills still passed, it’s troubling that Madrid often votes with Republicans and in the 2024 voted with Republicans to kill both Paid Family Medical Leave and the Oil and Gas Future Royalty Rate bills.
Based on Willie Madrid’s voting record on environmental protections, common sense control, and paid family medical leave, we do not recommend him for House District 53.Willie Madrid
