For over 30 years as a private attorney and now as your representative, I have defended Wyoming against the administrative state. For too long, Washington, D.C. has delegated authority to unelected bureaucrats in a manner that jeopardizes our Constitution.
Administrative agencies have the power to write, enforce, and judicially review law, even though they are unelected and therefore unaccountable to the People. How this translates in Wyoming is the EPA’s ability to bring tens of thousands of dollars of fines per day against a rancher who simply cleared out an irrigation ditch on his property, or small businesses losing resources to complex regulatory compliance.
As a member of the Judiciary Committee, I have primary jurisdiction over administrative law where I am working to restore power in Congress, ensure due process, and otherwise stop the onslaught of trillions in hidden taxes that stem from annual regulatory compliance.

Wyoming congresswoman Harriet Hageman has co-sponsored a bill that would bar the Departments of the Interior and Agriculture from prohibiting or regulating the use of lead ammunition or tackle for hunting or fishing on federal land.
Instead of working to address labor shortfall and ensure benefits and rights in the workplace, the Department of Labor has chosen to focus its efforts on creating a "climate adaption plan" that in no way relates to their congressionally-assigned duties.

Wyoming’s lone U.S. House representative co-sponsored a budget amendment Tuesday that would have defunded a federal law that requires all passenger cars sold after 2026 to have a kill switch.
But the proposed amendment failed Tuesday evening in a 229-201 vote, with eight delegates not voting.
Rep. Harriet Hageman, R-Wyoming, was among 199 Republicans and two Democrats voting to defund the kill-switch mandate. Voting against the amendment were 210 Democrats and 19 Republicans.
