GOA-Backed Pro-Second Amendment Candidates Headed to Cheyenne!
We are excited to announce that Wyoming achieved a remarkable victory for pro-Second Amendment Conservatives in the November 5 General Election!
At the state level in the Wyoming House, 32 of our endorsed candidates won while 3 won in the Wyoming Senate. Additionally, in a 36th win, Congresswoman Harriet Hageman, GOA-endorsed for U.S. House, also won her bid for re-election to Congress.
It is important for our members and supporters to remember that, prior to the August 2024 Wyoming Republican Party Primary, Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon LAUNCHED AN EXTRAORDINARY ATTACK ON YOUR SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHTS
In a move reminiscent of social media “Fact Checkers” who attack information with which they disagree, Governor Gordon set up a website https://www.factcheckwyoming.com/ to make his Primary choices clear.
Gordon’s site showed his preferred candidates in 49 of Wyoming’s 77 open Republican Legislative races (62 House and 15 Senate) decided August 20.
Of GOA’s 54 endorsed candidates in the Primary, 40 of them directly overlapped and contradicted the Wyoming Governor’s endorsements, where Gordon picked the weaker Second Amendment candidate all 40 times!
Gordon’s Candidates” were a list of “who not to trust” with your Second Amendment Rights!
THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT OF THESE 40 LEGISLATIVE RACES IN THE PRIMARY, GOA CANDIDATES WON IN 25 OF 40 (63%) RACES!
Furthermore, in total opportunities overall, the GOA-endorsed candidate won 37 (69%) of 54 Wyoming Legislative races.
FAST FORWARD TO TUESDAY’S GENERAL ELECTION IN WYOMING.
IN THE WYOMING LEGISLATURE, ALL BUT TWO OF THE GOA-BACKED PRIMARY WINNERS WON NOVEMBER 5, SENDING 35 STRONG SECOND AMENDMENT ADVOCATES TO CHEYENNE.
HARRIET HAGEMAN IS RETURNING TO THE U.S. HOUSE IN WASHINGTON D.C. AS WELL!
As we head into the 2025 Wyoming Legislative Session, the Wyoming Legislature should be a strong bulwark to protect your Second Amendment Rights against a Governor who has become more and more anti-Second Amendment throughout his time in office.
Let us not forget Governor Gordon’s veto of the GOA-backed Repeal of Gun Free Zones Bill just 8 months ago in March 2024.
In the coming weeks and months, GOA will provide you critical information about the composition of the Wyoming House and Senate and how we can all work together to protect and defend our Second Amendment Rights in Cheyenne during the 2025 legislative session.
Additionally, GOA will continue to lead in Washington to ensure members of the U.S. Congress keep their promises and uphold our God-Given Right to Keep and Bear Arms.
Stay tuned for more information soon.
