You must have a governor who does not take away your rights. Gas tax. Wyoming is one of the most mineral rich states in the country. Yet we are taxing our people an additional $.10 per gallon on fuel. There is more than enough money in our state to take care of our roads and highways without increasing the burden on our citizens. As governor I will repeal this unnecessary tax on the Wyoming people. Common Core. The current governor went before the State School Board and said that he wanted the Common Core adopted “without further delay.” I opposed it and voted no. I believe that we as a state should have the highest standards in education and not set by those from far outside our state. As governor I will repeal the Common Core.
