"As a 46 yr resident of Grant County who has followed the land office position and supported the honest running of the office by the likes of Commissioner Jim Baca and Stephanie Garcia Richards, I strongly stand by Matthew McQueen for this position which will continue to enhance childhood education, and take good care of our state trust lands."
"My family and I have known and supported Representative McQueen throughout his distinguished career in the state legislature. His honesty and hard work ethic are legendary as is his deep knowledge of the state of our public lands, our working lands and the needs of the children and families in NM. I can't think of a more qualified candidate for SLO Commissioner or a better trustee of our state lands or a more dedicated administrator to guide the staff at SLO."
"Matthew has a distinguished record in the state legislature of helping protect our environment and addressing the needs of all citizens. And as a private citizen he has decades of experience with the issues that the Land Office addresses. It will also help that he knows the Executive and Legislative branches and will be effective in advancing solutions on Day 1."
"Matthew McQueen has been my state representative. He has taken positions on issues related to the duties of the Land Commissioner which are good for the State of New Mexico and the environment. He has my highest recommendation."
"I've known Matthew for close to thirty years. I can say that he truly and deeply cares about the people of our state and has improved the lives of New Mexicans. Matthew has my trust and endorsement."
"I believe Matthew will best serve the needs of our state’s resources. His stewardship in state government has set the example of his integrity and clarity. In an era when our resources are under multiple threats, we all require his strong leadership."
