Soon to be Congressperson Harriet Hagemen believes all of the Big Lies and she will have the power to do the unthinkable.
I left Wyoming as soon as I was old enough because I knew I was neither safe nor respected as a queer Mexican progressive. It was hard to leave home, but it would have been catastrophic to stay. I worry, now more than ever, about people like me who are still there. I haven’t been a resident of Wyoming for years, although my family still lives there. At first, every time I went home to visit, I’d take a big deep breath in as I drove down US 85 (also known as the Gun Barrel) toward home and finally exhaled when it was in my rear-view. Over the years, a lot did get better (thanks Obama!), but I was there recently, and friends, it felt more unsafe than ever.
The truth is that proud boys have more power than any progressive in Wyoming.
We must do something. Please consider donating today.
No one has ever said, as Wyoming goes, so goes the nation — but what if it does?
Please help us fight for decency and dignity.
Sincerely,
Dc Lozano
California Political Director circa Wyoming
