Family Values and Education
Wyoming is a unique place – it represents the best of what America stands for. Our values prioritize faith and family. Parents must be highly involved in the education of their children and education should be laser-focused on the priorities of reading, writing and arithmetic, leaving other social issues to be discussed by parents at the time they determine is appropriate. I am committed to fighting for Wyoming parents and their children. I have, and will continue, to advocate for the sanctity of human life from conception to natural death, for religious freedom, and against woke ideology.

Many of them became highly successful in business, agriculture and academia. And she was not alone, with thousands of teachers in both urban and rural settings being highly skilled at educating our students to excel and building this great nation in the process.
