Happy Thanksgiving, Albuquerque,
This year has looked very different than we all thought it would. It’s been tough for everyone, but this Thanksgiving I am more thankful than ever to live in Albuquerque. Our city has shown its resilience and faced challenges head on. Burqueños have stepped up in so many ways for our community, from the essential workers who have kept the city running and provided a safety net for our most vulnerable populations, to the parents who have learned to balance working from home with virtual school. As the virus spikes again with the beginning of winter, the best way to help our community right now is by staying home as much as you can.
If you have to leave for work, groceries, or some other essential reason: Mask up, keep six feet between you and others, and wash your hands frequently. This holiday season is going to be challenging in ways we haven’t had to deal with before, but we must do everything we can to keep our community safe and healthy.
From my family to yours: Have a safe, healthy, happy holiday season.
