Ray Powell Supporter/FABIAN CHAVEZ

I am very grateful and honored to have Mr. Fabian Chavez, a member of the New Mexico House of Representatives 1951-1952, the State Senate 1955-1964 and Senate Majority Leader 1961-1964 as a strong supporter. Many regard Mr. Chavez as one of the most accomplished and well liked leaders in New Mexico’s history.
