Here's to a new year full of good work, community, and building a brighter future for the state we love together!

Thanks for nothing! 😤 This year, the GOP spent a lot of time wreaking havoc on our country and no time making life better for everyday Americans.

Wishing you the happiest holidays!

ICYMI: Hageman to run for Senate seat.

BREAKING

Wonder why? 🤔

Call Harriet Hageman NOW and remind her that she works for the tens of thousands of Wyoming families that are about to lose their insurance - not a bunch of billionaires and the rapidly declining President.

There’s always money for ballrooms and billionaire tax breaks, but when Wyoming families face 693% premium hikes, suddenly it’s time to cinch up the purse strings.

Had they the capacity.

Aren't the consequences of their stupid property tax cut already bad enough?! Now the "Freedom" Caucus wants to nix property taxes entirely! Tell your legislators that you oppose these efforts to sell out our future. Read more in Rep. Yin's excellent op-ed, link in bio.

Hey John Barrasso… do you think we’re stupid?! Your “plan” strips the tax credits that make insurance affordable & replaces them with $1,000 in an HSA. Seriously?! How far out of touch do you have to be to think $1,000 will fix a 693% premium spike or even cover an ER visit?

On this day 156 years ago, Wyoming became the first state in the nation where women could vote. We will never forget that this right was not granted- it was fought for and won. We honor the women who came before us and we will continue the fight for true equality.

Is the ACA perfect? No. Do Republicans have a viable plan to replace it? Also no. ACA tax credits are the ONLY thing that make health insurance affordable for thousands of Wyomingites. Barrasso & Lummis have a duty to vote YES. Take action here: https://wyodems.org/ticktock/

It’s time for Barrasso, Lummis, & Hageman to stop playing games & stand up for the people they represent. A vote to extend ACA tax credits is expected this week & they need to vote YES. Time is running out for Wyoming families. Head to https://wyodems.org/ticktocktock to take action!

This is a matter of life and death for people across our state. The clock is ticking for families facing the highest premium spikes in the nation. That's why we launched https://wyodems.org/ticktock/ — a real-time countdown, Wyoming-specific data, and tools to take action before it’s too late.

In light of recent reporting, we thought a follow up was in order.

Wishing everyone across this beautiful state a day full of time spent with loved ones, laughter, gravy, and more whipped cream than pie. Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at WDP!

Wyoming has the 3rd highest suicide rate in the nation & Freedom Caucus members want to gut mental health care, shift services to churches, & reshape our state government around their religious beliefs. 🔗 WPR's excellent article in replies.

“As an Army combat veteran who served under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, I was taught from the very beginning of my service that refusing unlawful orders is not optional. It is a legal and moral obligation."

While Wyoming families are struggling with real problems, the Freedom Caucus is spending taxpayer time and money legislating things that don't exist.

We aren't going to waste our breath.

Barrasso out here making Wyoming proud on the weekend shows again. 🤮

We're not just sending thoughts and prayers, we're putting our money where the hungry bellies are! Please donate to our virtual food drive for Food Bank of Wyoming — we're almost halfway to our goal of raising $10,000! https://www.mobilize.us/wyodems/event/865971/

The Freedom Caucus proposal to prohibit using SNAP to purchase sugar, spices and condiments reveals their appetite for cruelty. Check out Vice Chair Hanlon's op-ed! 👇 https://wyofile.com/meat-loves-salt-but-does-the-freedom-caucus-love-wyoming/

Today we express our gratitude to the veterans who have served our nation and protected the freedoms and values we hold dear. We honor their service, and we remember that gratitude is more than words- it means ensuring every veteran has access to the care and respect they earned.

Nobody has been working harder than Barrasso, Lummis, and Hageman to make sure Wyomingites pay the highest insurance premiums in the nation. The majority of Senate Democrats did the right thing and opposed this vote — we stand with them.

We won't let our friends and neighbors go hungry! Pitch in to help us hit $10,000 for Food Bank of Wyoming — every $1 = 3 meals. Let’s feed some folks. 💙

We are so dang excited to welcome our new Executive Director, Scott Merrifield!

Local clinics and health care advocates warned that Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act would trigger cuts and closures for Wyoming's rural health care. Barrasso, Lummis, and Hageman voted for it anyway.

🚨 URGENT ACTION 🚨 Republicans broke it, they need to fix it. They control the White House, Senate, and House. It’s time they fix the healthcare crisis they created and negotiate in good faith to keep the government open. Call NOW to demand our leaders do their jobs.

Why won't Hageman vote to release the #EpsteinFiles?

***This*** is the Wyoming we know & love!!! ❤️ The Wyoming where we may not agree on everything, but we can find common ground & friendship with our neighbors if we take the time to have a conversation. Just try not to tear up reading this article (link in replies) 🥹!

Our rights aren't up for debate. Call Senator Lummis and remind her: (202)-224-3424

L’Shanah Tovah to everyone celebrating Rosh Hashanah. May this new year bring you good health and prosperity.

It's not just #JimmyKimmel, freedom of speech is under attack from politicians right here in Wyoming.

It's an epic day to register as a Wyoming Democrat — National Voter Registration Day!!! Swing by your County Clerk's office, or check out iwillvote.com for more info!

We've been hearing a lot about Democrats over the past week. Who we are, what we want, all our nefarious plans... How about we just give it to you straight from the horse's mouth and clear things up?

The next stop on Reps Provenza & Yin's road trip across WY was in Rock Springs! In this dark moment, connecting w/ our neighbors is so deeply important! We're grateful for our Democratic leaders who care enough to listen & connect w/ everyone, regardless of party. 💙

Today, we honor the lives lost & heroes of 9/11. When some would use tragedy to deepen our divides, let's choose differently. Let's remember that we are Americans — all of us — & that our unity is our greatest strength.

We condemn violence in any form, against anyone, anywhere.

W.T.F. ??? Freedom Caucus' John Bear just told you everything you need to know! They’re focused on tax breaks for billionaires. Democrats are focused on fully funding schools. 📹 TikTok: mikeyin.wy

YIKES. Hard to watch a grown man abandon his dignity like this. 🫣

I'm very "concerned" that our WY Senator who is a trained physician (Georgetown and Yale) does not want to "second guess" the President about healthcare. Surely, Dr. Senator Barrasso has more knowledge than the President. Shameful! I don't know how the doctor can look in the mirror.
