Statement on Rep. Harriet Hageman’s Vote Against Keeping the Government Open
It’s disappointing to see Rep. Harriet Hageman prioritize political points over the well-being of the American people. Her vote against the spending package that keeps our federal government running only hurts Wyoming families and workers who depend on essential services and support.
In times of uncertainty, we should be focusing on solutions that help our communities thrive—not playing political games. Our government needs to function, and preventing a shutdown is critical to ensuring that Social Security checks get mailed, healthcare services remain available, and our national defense stays strong.
We deserve leadership that puts the people first and fights for economic stability, job creation, and the well-being of every citizen. Our campaign is about ensuring Wyoming families have a voice in Washington, one that works to build a better future for all of us, not one bogged down by partisan politics.
Let’s work together for a government that stays open, accountable, and responsive to the needs of everyday Americans.
Apparently somebody or somebodies are creating and distributing crude and vulgar anti-Trump buttons, or pins, in various places around Wyoming. The Sheridan County Democrats know nothing about them, who’s behind them, and does not participate in that kind of hateful activity. There has been no indication that any Democratic Party in the state is involved or behind the distribution of those button and pins. To distribute those, anonymously, seems, to us, quite cowardly.

The Wyoming primary is done, DNC wrapped up, general election to go. In the meantime, still feeling the fire?! The WDP says helping Jon Tester win CANNOT WAIT! Their message is that it is the MOST important swing state and they are asking you to please consider getting involved, making a donation, any time or amount, for Jon Tester. Erin O’Doherty, WDP Data Director, is organizing to go to Billings to help 307-399-1309. I’m going to volunteer to phone bank! “Do something” as Michelle Obama asked us to do.

From helping to build houses to picking up trash along the highway to working for green spaces and bike paths and serving at Lunch Together, Sheridan County Democrats are here for good.
Of course, Sheridan County Democrats continue to support and stand with the efforts of groups, individuals and organizations that are dedicated to protecting reproductive rights in our state and across the nation.
But perhaps the most important thing we can do as a county party is to elect more Democrats who share our values, whether it’s protecting reproductive rights, ensuring public education is funded, fighting for access to quality health care, protecting our public lands and a whole host of other issues.
We need people in office at every level of government who can work towards putting progressive policies in place while pushing back against right wing extremists in their failed, and often dangerous, policy proposals and ideology.
