WASHINGTON — It may sound like something out of a science fiction film, but the “X-date” is real and fast approaching — bringing with it the prospect of global financial catastrophe.

WASHINGTON — Towards the end of my hour-long, exclusive sit down with Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-Wyo.) late last month — after I’d asked about her transition to Washington, her policy priorities and her thoughts on contemporary political debates — there was one question I knew I couldn’t leave without addressing.

WASHINGTON — To understand Wyoming Rep. Harriet Hageman’s policy priorities, one needs to look no further than at the decor of her Capitol Hill office.

Her large wooden desk is piled high with papers: notes and documents from recent hearings and research into upcoming bills to be introduced, she said.

WASHINGTON — It was a Friday morning in late April and the congresswoman was already behind schedule.

Making her way down the long hallway on the fifth floor of the Longworth House Office Building — smaller than the Rayburn complex but no less confusing to navigate — the click-clack of her shoes echoed throughout the empty chambers. The place was mostly deserted, save for a few staffers dressed in khakis and plaid shirts for casual Friday.

WASHINGTON — The U.S. House of Representatives on Thursday passed a bill which would amend federal civil rights laws to bar most transgender student athletes from participating on female school sports teams, as dozens of states, including Wyoming, have passed similar laws in recent months.

WASHINGTON — Republicans in the U.S. House — Wyoming’s Rep.

WASHINGTON — After a slow start to the 118th Congress, the role of Wyoming’s three-person delegation in Washington is coming into focus.

If they want to receive a diploma, Wyoming’s high school graduates may soon need to pass a civics test. A bill making its way through the Wyoming Legislature would require all students to correctly answer at least 60% of the civics-related questions posed to new U.S. citizens.

WASHINGTON — Exactly two years ago, on Jan. 6, 2021, the work of the U.S. Congress was ground to a halt by a violent mob seeking to stop the certification of President Joe Biden’s electoral victory. After blowing past police barricades, rioters forced their way into the Senate chamber chanting “hang Mike Pence” and sending lawmakers scrambling for safety underground.

WASHINGTON — Congresswoman-elect Harriet Hageman arrived at the U.S. Capitol on Tuesday prepared to be sworn in as the newest member of Wyoming’s Congressional delegation.

Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), who Wyoming voters ousted last year, in the 118th Congress.

WASHINGTON—The holiday season has brought few gifts to former President Donald Trump.

In the week leading up to Christmas, Trump endured blow after damning blow: an historic recommendation for prosecution on federal crimes by a Congressional panel, a vote to authorize the release of his long-obscured tax returns, the publication of investigators’ final report into his wrongdoing on Jan. 6 and the overhaul of a centuries-old law Trump sought to abuse in 2020.

WASHINGTON — Lawmakers in the U.S. Senate on Tuesday voted 61-36 to pass legislation enshrining federal protections for same-sex and interracial marriages, a rare bipartisan showing in which Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.) joined 11 other Republicans and all Democrats in support of the bill. Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), voted against the legislation, citing his longstanding opposition to same-sex unions.

WASHINGTON — In the 2020 election, Wyoming voters broke for former President Donald Trump by a greater margin than did Americans anywhere else in the country, 70-27.

Candidates seeking to represent Wyoming in the U.S. House of Representatives next year met at Central Wyoming College in Riverton on Thursday night for a general election debate, but the focus was squarely on the one candidate not present: Harriet Hageman.

WASHINGTON — During the ninth and what is expected to be the final public hearing of the House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, panel members concluded their presentation of evidence with a unanimous vote: to issue a subpoena for documents and sworn testimony from former President Donald Trump.

WASHINGTON — Appearing just over two miles from one another before audiences convened at rival conservative think tanks on Monday evening, Wyoming’s current representative to the U.S. House and the woman set to replace her both delivered scathing indictments of the state of the American constitutional order.
