The legislators we racial discrimination. Few last weekend’s champion- Can’t get enough of Trump’s didn’t hear it from me. elect serve on our behalf, but they can’t do it alone. To cast informed votes and make difficult choices, our legislators need the benefit of our experience and they need to know our wishes. The most effec- tive way to do that is to reach out, even if you believe one voice won’t make a difference. As residents of the least-populated state in the union, we have the unique opportunity of getting to know our legislators personally, often on a first- name basis. These relationships are the cornerstone of Wyoming’s legislative process, and we would be remiss not to take advantage of such an opportunity. That said, things will not always go as planned in Cheyenne; decisions will be made and bills will be passed that will leave many voters scratching their heads. It’s exactly those situations where we must question if we did enough to make our opinions heard. The old axiom that rears its ugly head after each election, “If you didn’t vote, you have no right to complain,” extends farther than the voting booths. Electing an official should be just the first step of the process. The budget session starts Feb. 12, and there’s still time to get involved. Some of this year’s proposed legislation, over 130 bills so far, are now online for your perusal at http://legisweb.state.wy.us. Once the budget session starts, it will become increasingly difficult for voters to find an audience with their legislators, so time is of the essence. To make things easier, streamline your argument. Offer solutions, rather than criticism. Tell them what you think. If they’re doing a great job, let your lawmaker know. A little positive reinforcement goes a long way. But don’t be afraid to hold them accountable. Finally, maintain open lines of communication after the end of the session. Next year’s session will be here before you know it. You can find the contact information for our legis- lators on this page or by accessing the Wyoming leg- islative website. You can follow bills on the site, too. Whether it be via telephone, email or letter, know your input matters and is needed. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR timely manner.
