WASHINGTON, D.C.— Today, U.S. Senator John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) released the following statement:

“There is much more to be said about Cynthia’s extraordinary career in public service thus far, but for now I want to say simply that she will be greatly missed.

“Wyoming will miss her energy and her fight. The U.S. House of Representatives will miss one of the most decent, honest and irreplaceable voices for western principles and ideals in Congress today.

“I know Cynthia is particularly looking forward to spending more time with her family, being on her ranch, and enjoying more of those things that made her fight for Wyoming so important to begin with. Bobbi and I wish her the best.”
