A Legislative Town Hall was hosted by the Sheridan County Republican Party and the Republican Women of Sheridan County Tuesday in Sheridan. Governor Mark Gordon signed an executive order Wednesday establishing and directing the implementation of the SUN Bucks Summer Nutrition program. The SUN Bucks program was a part of the Department of Family Services exception budget request during the recent Budget Session, but was not funded by the Wyoming Legislature.

House District 29 Representative Ken Pendergraft talked about why he voted against SUN Bucks, a federal summer nutritional program that helps to ensure low income children receive meals throughout the summer months throughout the state.
