Politics of Public Lands
This is a youth-led and community-supported event promoted throughout the Bighorn Basin (Park, Big Horn, Hot Springs, Washakie, and Fremont counties). The public will have the opportunity to speak to candidates about the topic of public lands (or, if we’re honest, anything else they might be concerned about), and how those lands and policies impact our lives as Wyomingites.
Food trucks will be available.

Another Call for Public Lands
Teno Rencalio was the last Democrat elected to the Wyoming US House in 1965 and he served until 1978. I believe we need to turn the page and work toward the needs of Wyomingites. I will work to make sure that all citizens, the hard-working, honest, help-your-neighbor individuals are number ONE in my priorities. The Public Lands in Public Hands Act, H.R. 71 restricted transfer or sale of federal lands that have public access and was introduced in Congress on January 23, 2025 and has not moved since. I plan to reintroduce that bill. I am grateful for your concern about our future – everywhere I go I see beautiful public lands. In order to do this, I need your support! Electing another Democrat to the US House will ensure Wyoming’s legacy for generations to come! Thank you!

CHEYENNE (WNE) — A candidate for Wyoming’s lone U.S. House seat is criticizing the removal of signage at Grand Teton National Park that described 19th-century explorer Gustavus Doane’s role in a massacre of Native Americans, calling the move an attempt to rewrite state history.
The signs were taken down under a federal executive order titled “Restoring Truth and Sanity to American History.” The administration has described the removed material as “improper partisan ideology.”
Lisa Kinney, a Democratic candidate for the U.S. House, said the order does neither.
“This is neither ‘truth’ nor ‘sanity.’ It is outrageous,” Kinney said in a news release. “Why should we allow Washington to determine and rewrite Wyoming history?”
Kinney said the federal government should not have the final say over how the state’s history is told.
“Wyoming is independent, and we do not just roll over when told to do so by the federal government,” she said. She added that the removal amounts to “a disparaging and significant insult to the Native Americans in our state.”
The same order also stripped information from the Fort Laramie National Historic Site that addressed the persecution, forced relocation and displacement of Native Americans, according to the release. In Yellowstone National Park, several signs were flagged for removal, but conflicting guidance has so far kept them in place.
The order’s legality is being contested in federal court. A federal judge had ordered the signs restored by July 4, but a U.S. Court of Appeals has temporarily blocked that ruling, leaving the case unresolved.
Wyoming is not alone: signage and interpretive exhibits have been ordered removed at national parks in other states as well. Roughly 400 National Park Service employees nationwide say they are now barred from discussing the removed historical material with visitors.
“National parks teach our tourists about the history of Wyoming, and the signs should be immediately restored and the teachings resumed,” Kinney said. “We need to stop this Washington attack on our tribes and on Wyoming.”
