Dear Neighbor,

My name is Siah Correa Hemphill and my roots run deep throughout Socorro, Catron, and Grant County where my family has lived since the 1600’s.

I was raised in the small town of Hanover, in Grant County at the old T&M Dairy. My dad, from North Hurley and Bayard, was the first Hispanic editor at the Silver City Daily Press, while my mom stayed home to raise me, my sister and brothers. We didn’t have much, but my parents instilled in us a belief in hard work and helping our neighbors.

I have been an educator for 26 years—a career I turned to after my son was born with multiple disabilities. Like many in my family before me, my husband and I have also been successful small business owners. Today, I’m running for the State Senate to fight for the kids who I teach, our homegrown businesses, and all of the parents who work hard to make ends meet.

In the State Senate, I will champion:

• Our kids' education—improved internet access, recruiting and retaining the best teachers, and early childhood education 

• Affordable and accessible healthcare—for everyone 

• Our local small businesses so they overcome the challenges created by this health crisis

• Needs of our rural communities and protecting our natural resources like water

On November 3, I’d be honored to have your support.

Siah Correa Hemphill
Candidate for Senate District 28
