One year ago, @SenateGOP passed the Working Families @TaxCuts. Refunds went up. Taxes went down. Working families kept more of what they earned.

Every single Democrat voted against it. Democrats voted to raise taxes by $4 trillion.

[Sen. John Barrasso @SenJohnBarrasso]

No Tax on Overtime benefited over 29 million Americans. The average deduction was over $3,100 thanks to Republicans' Working Families @TaxCuts.

It was wonderful to visit the Wyoming State Pavilion at the @Freedom250 Great American State Fair in Washington, D.C. This interactive exhibit honors the Cowboy State’s unique history, heritage, and role in shaping our nation as we celebrate 250 years of American Independence.

Congratulations to Miriam Washut from Lander on winning the Presidential 1776 Award! Miriam’s deep understanding of America’s founding principles and civic knowledge make Wyoming proud. Students like her show that Wyoming is leading the way in civic education.

[Secretary Linda McMahon @EDSecMcMahon]

What began with an “Impossible Civics Test,” ended with three remarkable students earning a combined $250,000 in scholarship money.  Congratulations to Miriam Washut of WY, Summer Brondstetter of WA, & Rowan Kozminski of MI!

Minnesota is ground zero for fraud. Biden and the Democrats looked the other way.

Republicans make fighting fraud a top priority. @SenJoniErnst investigated a day care center in Minnesota that had raked in over $230,000 from @SBAgov alone and had ZERO children enrolled.

[Sen. John Barrasso @SenJohnBarrasso]

Estimates for Medicaid fraud are as much as $120 billion annually. Republicans' are fighting the war against fraud. The Working Families @TaxCuts:

✅Puts in place work requirements for Medicaid.
✅Ensures illegal immigrants do not receive taxpayer-funded healthcare.
✅Strengthens eligibility requirements for Medicaid.

It was a pleasure to welcome folks from Worland to Washington, D.C. last week. We had meaningful conversations about the preservation of liberty, the enduring ideals found in our Declaration of Independence, and the anticipation of celebrating the Fourth of July back home.

[Sen. John Barrasso @SenJohnBarrasso]

It was great to welcome Olympian Jaelin Kauf to Washington this week. She grew up skiing in Alta, Wyoming, and represented #TeamUSA at the Winter Olympics in Milan and Beijing. Jaelin has brought home 3 silver medals in her career and made all of Wyoming proud.🥈

[Sen. John Barrasso @SenJohnBarrasso]

Washington can make it easier for businesses to grow, and for Americans to prosper, by reforming the federal permitting system. Thank you @SenArmstrong for helping lead the effort to get America building again.

[Alan Armstrong @SenArmstrong]

.@SenateGOP just confirming @POTUS Trump’s 500th nominee. Republicans are getting nominees on the job, despite historic Democrat obstruction.

[Sen. John Barrasso @SenJohnBarrasso]

The Rural Health Transformation Fund is about delivering care where and when people need it most. Rural solutions should come from the states and local care providers.

That's why the Working Families @TaxCuts made the largest investment in rural healthcare in American history.

[Sen. John Barrasso @SenJohnBarrasso]

Rural Americans deserve access to local care that is affordable, reliable, & high quality.

Since Obamacare became law, over 100 rural hospitals have closed. Rural America deserves a better approach.

That’s why Republicans passed the $50 billion Rural Health Transformation Fund.

Our best days are ahead. 🇺🇸 #America250

[Sen. John Barrasso @SenJohnBarrasso]

Under Biden and the Democrats, Americans paid more for energy. Energy workers in Wyoming and across the country lost good paying jobs. And America grew more dependent on foreign nations for our energy.

Republicans' Working Families @TaxCuts cleared the way for energy dominance.

[Sen. John Barrasso @SenJohnBarrasso]

Every Democrat voted against the Working Families @TaxCuts. They voted to raise taxes by $4 trillion.

They voted to keep the tax on natural gas. They voted to keep American energy trapped in the ground.

If Democrats had their way, Americans would be paying more for everything.

[Sen. John Barrasso @SenJohnBarrasso]

The American Legion has a deep rooted history in serving veterans and their families. It was an incredible honor to attend the Wyoming American Legion’s annual convention in Powell. Thank you to all of our veterans and service members who sacrificed and dedicated so much for our country.

[Sen. John Barrasso @SenJohnBarrasso]

Powell’s GT Aeronautics manufactures Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) focused on weaponized counter defense and search and rescue systems that help protect Americans and our allies. What an exceptional manufacturer to have right here in Wyoming.

Triangle X Ranch in Grand Teton National Park is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year. It was a beautiful day to celebrate with the Turner family, neighbors and friends at the ranch.

[Sen. John Barrasso @SenJohnBarrasso]

Wyoming VFW provides unwavering support for veterans across the Cowboy State. It was a pleasure to visit with and thank them for their incredible service at their annual convention in Casper.
