In a busy day in Washington D.C. last week, our Congresswoman Harriett Hageman found time for Lincoln County.

She came out of a meeting and headed to another meeting, but first stepped into a room to visit with Lincoln County Commissioner Kent Connelly, Kemmerer Mayor Bill Thek, Diamondville Mayor Clint Bowen, State Rep. Scott Heiner and myself. We were based at the Lincoln County Court House in Kemmerer.

The Hot Springs County Republican Party hosted a town hall event with Wyoming's US Representative Harriet Hageman speaking at the County Museum on Monday, April 10. 

POWELL — As Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives slogged through 15 votes to elect a new speaker in early January, they spent more than 25 hours on the House floor together, with little to do but visit. And U.S. Rep. Harriet Hageman, R-Wyo., said she took advantage.

“I used every minute I could to explain what I think we need to do to change this country,” Hageman recounted at a Friday town hall in Cody. She said it resulted with her colleagues seeing her as “the expert” on administrative law.

Wyoming’s Washington delegation welcomed the end of the COVID-19 national emergency and a “return to normalcy” on Monday after three long years since the beginning of the pandemic.

Ending the national emergency terminated the use of some waivers for federal health programs like Medicaid and Medicare that were meant to support health care providers during the pandemic.

A group of House Republicans is joining in an effort to overturn the $1.7 trillion omnibus spending bill.

Many Wyoming Republicans are reacting with outrage to former President Donald Trump's indictment on 34 counts of bookkeeping fraud, the evidence of which was unsealed on Tuesday.

That day, Trump was arraigned in a Manhattan courthouse in New York City.

Trump has pleaded not guilty to all of the charges and has lashed out against the judge hearing his case and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who has brought the charges against him. Many conservatives have followed suit, saying the case is politically motivated. 

The House Anti-Woke Caucus, a newly formed group that hopes to defund and expose wokeness throughout the federal government, shared its previously unpublished membership list with the Daily Caller.

Representative Harriet Hageman (R-WY) joined Mac in the Morning on KODI to discuss a number of topics, including her visit to Cody for a Town Hall meeting on Friday, April 7th, at 9AM at the Cody Branch of the Park County Library.  The public is welcome to attend.
