EDUCATION
- Parental Choice and Empowerment
Parents deserve to have choice and say in where their children go to school and what they study. Jared passionately believes in empowering parents to have more involvement and say in their child's education. Jared has not only fought for education freedom while serving in the Wyoming House, he has led the way. Jared is also a founding member of a classical charter school in Cheyenne. He joined the effort to found a classical school because he wanted parents to have more choices on where and how their children are educated.
ENERGY & MINERAL INDUSTRIES
- DIVERSIFY AND DEFEND WYOMING'S WAY OF LIFE.
Wyoming's economy and the funding model for our schools is built upon three legs - coal, oil, and natural gas. The world is changing around us and market demands for coal and oil are never going to be the same. We must adapt to these changes if Wyoming is going to thrive. We must also continue the fight to improve our status as the leading energy state. We should work to further develop the exaction of coal and oil, while harnessing all forms of energy, including wind and solar. We can do this by supporting incentives for new industries, keeping coal markets open, and being mindful of taxation in these industries. Diversification in our energy sector will give Wyoming a robust and viable economy.
AGRICULTURE & PUBLIC LANDS
- DEFEND OUR FARMERS, RANCHERS, & PUBLIC LANDS
The Sanctity of life
- PRESERVE LIFE
Life is our most basic and fundamental right. Life is given to us by God, not governments, and without it all other rights are meaningless. Jared has a proven and undeniable voting record defending the sanctity of human life, especially the unborn. He is proudly endorsed by Wyoming Right to Life (2018, 2020, & 2022).
VETERANS & MILITARY
- WYOMING'S VETERANS DESERVE BETTER
Here in Wyoming we are blessed to call so many of our nation’s veterans our family and friends. In exchange for their sacrifices, they deserve to see the care we promised and owe them. Over the last eight years Jared has worked diligently with the Wyoming Military Department, USAF at Warren Base, and local communities to ensure we are doing or best for our Veterans and Military. Right now more than ever, our Veterans need and deserve a break from crushing property taxes. Jared supports relief/rebates for our Veterans on their property taxes.
Agriculture is Wyoming's 3rd largest industry. As Wyoming looks to tomorrow and modernizes its economy, it must elevate our agricultural heritage. Jared served as local counsel to the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund, protecting, defending, and broadening the rights and viability of independent farmers, artisan food producers, and their consumers.
Farmers and ranchers here in Wyoming are a major tenant to the backbone of our economy. They also represent generations of rooted families in our communities. We must be mindful to invest in our agricultural future, especially when striving for greater diversification in our economy. It's also true that the land they steward provides our state with breathtaking views and family friendly recreation year-round.
