New Mexico State House District 50

“I’m running for State House District 50 because I believe our government works best when it focuses on the people it’s supposed to serve. My life’s journey, from a small house here in Santa Fe to the front lines of healthcare, has shaped my commitment to fighting for families like yours.” (Sarah Boses Campaign Website)

“I spent much of my childhood in the places where my divorced parents worked - from the wood shop where my dad built cabinets to the restaurants where my mom was a baker and waitress and later a manager. Those early years taught me the value of hard work and the reality of making ends meet. My mom later bought the restaurant where she'd been a manager and that became my home away from home - watching the tireless, often unseen work of prep cooks and dishwashers. Much of what I know about life and service came from growing up and working in our restaurant.” (Sarah Boses Campaign Website)

“The trajectory of my life changed drastically when I got pregnant during my junior year of high school at St. Mike’s. The choice to have a baby meant my path forward wasn’t easy. While I was heartbroken to leave my friends and classmates for our senior year, Santa Fe High was there for me during one of the hardest times of my life. Being part of the Teen Parent Program was a lifesaver. The director of that program saw something in me and encouraged me to become a nurse. That support changed my path forever.” (Sarah Boses Campaign Website)

“I graduated from New Mexico's public school system and served 20 years in the U.S. Navy, retiring as a Chief Petty Officer. After my military career, I spent 23 years in the power-generation and renewable-energy industries, including 17 years in management, leading and mentoring teams of more than 230 employees. I retired from the private sector in 2023.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection Survey)

“I believe every New Mexican should have timely access to quality healthcare. My top legislative priority is retaining and attracting physicians, specialists, nurses, and other medical professionals to New Mexico. We need to understand why healthcare professionals leave and work directly with them to develop practical solutions that make New Mexico a place where they want to practice and can afford to build a career. I also support improving access to 24/7 emergency and urgent care, particularly in rural and underserved communities such as those throughout House District 50.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection Survey)

“My father. He taught me that everyone has value and to treat people like I would want my mother treated. He always did what was in the best interest of our family” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection Survey)
