Ken Miyagishima, a seasoned politician with over three decades of public service, is launching an independent bid for New Mexico governor. After serving as Las Cruces mayor and dropping out of the Democratic primary, Miyagishima is focusing on bipartisan solutions to housing, homelessness, healthcare, and rural transportation. Hes raised $105,000, with half coming from his own pocket, and is pushing for apprenticeships, extra state police, tax breaks for seniors, and growth in tourism and aerospace. Miyagishima, whose family experienced World War II internment, is critiquing data center incentives and vowing to repeal a law blocking county leases for immigration detention facilities.
