Cynthia Lummis - Senator for Wyoming
President Trump is Standing Up
for the People of Wyoming and America.
During his speech to the
joint session of Congress this week, President Trump laid out a clear
vision for America: a Golden Age, where our government once again puts
the American people first, and prioritizes safety and prosperity. For
far too long, American leaders sent aid abroad, while ignoring the
hardships and concerns of citizens at home. In just six weeks,
President Trump has achieved an astonishing amount for our country.
He's secured our southern border, begun to roll back burdensome energy
regulations to boost American energy production, and saved billions of
taxpayer dollars. The president did not make promises just to secure
victory, he is fulfilling every single one of them.
During his
remarks, President Trump delivered a bold, forward-looking vision for
our nation, supported by the brave men and women, boys and girls who
embody the American dream. While Republicans celebrated securing our
border and protecting women's sports, Democrats refused to recognize
these victories that keep Americans safe. When Republicans stood in
solidarity with DJ Daniel and Laken Riley, Democrats remained seated,
showing the American people whose side they are on. Our nation is not
so far gone that we cannot come together to honor a child battling
brain cancer or a young woman whose life was taken too soon. Yet,
Democrats in Congress would have the American people believe they've
lost their compassion.
Four years under the Biden administration
left the west in disarray, and President Trump is putting the pieces
back together. By declaring an energy emergency, he unlocked Wyoming's
potential to maximize its power production. By securing our southern
border, illegal crossings hit a record low, protecting communities
throughout the Cowboy State. And by reining in the federal
bureaucracy, President Trump is ensuring the government works for the
taxpayers who fund it. We have left the dark age behind and are
entering a golden era for Wyoming prosperity.
Happy
Trails,

Senator
Lummis' Week in Pictures
We had a great start to Wyoming
Wednesdays! There is nothing I enjoy more than hearing from people
throughout the Cowboy State about how Senator Barrasso, Representative
Hageman, and I can help here in Washington.

Legislative
Actions
I led Senator John Barrasso and Representative Harriet
Hageman in introducing legislation to rename the National Historic
Trails Interpretive Center in Casper the "Barbara L. Cubin National
Historic Trails Interpretive Center." Wyoming, the Equality State, has
produced remarkable trailblazers who shaped the path forward for
American women, and Barbara Cubin stands firmly among them. As a
founding member of the Congressional Western Caucus, Barbara was a
powerful voice for our western values. Now, as chair of the Senate
counterpart, I'm proud to carry on her legacy as a fierce champion for
the Wyoming way of life. This legislation not only commemorates
Barbara's extraordinary decades of public service but also
acknowledges the indelible mark she has left on our state and
nation.
It was a long Thursday night two weeks ago when Democrats
wasted everyone's time by trying to update the Senate's budget
resolution with amendments that had nothing to do with securing our
border, unleashing American energy, and rebuilding our military. Under
President Biden's failed leadership, hardworking families across
Wyoming shelled out more of their hard-earned money than ever to keep
up with record-breaking inflation and watched as Biden's policies
jeopardized our national security. The budget resolution isn't
perfect, but it is a first step towards securing our southern border,
making our military strong again, and unleashing American energy.
President Trump promised to deliver peace through strength, and we are
ensuring he has the resources necessary to put hardworking Wyoming
families first. This first step will be followed by making tax cuts
permanent, cutting wasteful spending, and growing our economy.
I
also chaired the very first hearing of the Digital Assets Subcommittee
where witnesses expressed the need for Congress to provide a clear
regulatory framework for digital assets to promote growth and maintain
our nation's reputation as a global leader in financial innovation. We
have come a long way since I was elected to the Senate in 2020, when
many of the members of this body were still trying to wrap their heads
around what a bitcoin is and what a stablecoin is. We are on the
precipice of finally creating a bipartisan legislative framework for
both stablecoins and market structure. I am hopeful that we can get
both pieces of legislation to President Trump for his signature this
year.
