State Senator Jay Block, a Republican representing New Mexico’s 12th Senate district, made several statements on his official Twitter account over April 11 and 12, 2026. His posts addressed partisan politics, a tribute to a fallen individual, and an incident involving political violence.
On April 11, Block commented on recent legislative developments by stating: “Huge! Remember, not one Democrat voted for you to keep more of your money. Remember that in November.” This message referenced party-line voting and urged constituents to recall the event during upcoming elections.
Later the same day, Block posted a brief tribute: “RIP hero.” The post did not specify the identity of the individual but conveyed condolences.
On April 12, Block addressed an incident involving alleged political violence against commentator Savsays. He wrote: “The party of peace, tolerance, protecting women, free speech, etc…total BS. I hope these thugs who assaulted @Savsays are brought to justice immediately. @CivilRights @WhiteHouse”
Block was elected to represent New Mexico’s 12th Senate district in 2025 after succeeding Jerry Ortiz y Pino.
