SELLOUTS vs. CHAMPIONS

Protect Wyoming's list of legislators and their record on public lands:

SELLOUTS vs. CHAMPIONS

This is really worth knowing. While this is directly copying most of the page, here's what they founds:

top SELLOUTS

Note: While Senators Tim French and Laura Pearson are not up currently for re-election, they are the legislators most actively trying to privatize and sell off our wildlife. So we want folks to take note, even though they’re not on the ballot this year.

top CHAMPIONS

Note: Senator Nethercott is not up for re-election in 2026, but has been one of the most vocal defenders of sportsmen and women on the Senate floor, and deserves a spot in the Top Defenders.

FIND YOUR LEGISLATOR

 I don't know all the legislators by any means, but the antis I know are no surprise. The pros I know aren't a surprise either.  Unfortunately a couple of them are leaving the legislature.

Anyone on the anti list here should be voted out of office.

Gas and Electric Stoves Promoted a Hundred Years Ago

Wednesday, April 19, 1876. A suggestion.

 To the Editor of the National Republican:

Sir: Admirable as is the monument by Mr. Ball in Lincoln Park, it does not, as it seems to me, tell the whole truth, and perhaps no one monument could be made to tell the whole truth of any subject which it might be designed to illustrate. The mere act of breaking the negro’s chains was the act of Abraham Lincoln, and is beautifully expressed in this monument. But the act by which the negro was made a citizen of the United States and invested was the elective franchise was pre-eminently the act of President U. S. Grant, and this is nowhere seen in the Lincoln monument. The negro here, though rising is still on his knees and nude. What I want to see before I die is a monument representing the negro, not couchant on his knees like a four-footed animal, but erect on his feet like a man. There is room in Lincoln park for another monument, and I throw out this suggestion to the end that it may be taken up and acted upon.

Frederick Douglass.
