This year our Special Guest is Jessica Cisneros from Texas, an immigration and human rights attorney who catapulted onto the national stage as a progressive leader with her recent run for Congress in Texas.

We also invite you to join the Rising Star VIP reception, held before the main event, which is an exclusive opportunity to mingle with elected officials.

The Rising Star is when we bring together New Mexicans who are passionate about electing Democrats and highlighting emerging leaders in our Party. As our most important event of the year, we hope you’ll support the Democratic Party at the 2022 Rising Star.

P.S. Included with every ticket purchase is catering from M’tucci’s and Pop Fizz.
