Holds 30 Town Meetings Across Wyoming
WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator John Barrasso, R-Wyo., today announced that not only has he fulfilled his promise to hold a town meeting in each of Wyoming ’s 23 counties by Labor Day, he exceeded it by holding a total of 30 town meetings since taking office in June.
"When I became a U.S. Senator, I pledged to hold a town meeting in each of Wyoming’s 23 counties because one of the most important parts of my job is listening to the people of Wyoming ,” Barrasso said. “These town meetings have given me a great opportunity to visit with folks about the hopes and dreams they have for their family, their future, and our state.”
“The issues facing Wyoming vary from county to county,” Barrasso added. “That is why I felt it was so important to hold town meetings in every part of the state, from Evanston to Sundance, Alpine to Cheyenne , and everywhere in between.”
“As Senator, I promise to continue doing four things: showing up, standing up, speaking up, and shutting up. I will show up for weekends in Wyoming and for votes in Washington . I will stand up for the people of Wyoming and for the values we share.
“I will speak up for lower taxes, limited government, fewer regulations, a strong defense, and secure borders. And, I will shut up because actions speak louder than words. I want to listen to people and hear their views in order to be a more effective Senator for all of the people of Wyoming .”
