Senator Barrasso: Republicans’ Big Beautiful Bill Unleashes Wyoming Energy
U.S. Senator John Barrasso (R-WY), Senate Majority Whip, spoke on the Senate Floor Thursday to discuss the historic opening of the Brook Mine in Sheridan. The Brook Mine is the first rare earth elements mine to break ground in 70 years. Senator Barrasso said Republicans’ Big Beautiful Bill unleashes Wyoming energy.
Barrasso said Wyoming minerals, mined by Wyoming workers, will build a safer, more prosperous America.
Barrasso closed his Senate Floor remarks by saying that Republicans are focused on restoring American energy dominance and getting America back on track – stronger, safer, and more prosperous than ever, and that they will not stop until the American people see the results they deserve.

Remember when Medicade is cut for the needy. Medicare becomes more expensive and his absolute disregard for the climate to vote him out.

This big smelly bill isn’t going to help Wyoming. What about climate change? Coal is going to cause more pollution. We need to start using renewable energy. Barrasso is short sighted. I hope we get a change from this fascist regime that is taking away healthcare to fund the ICE thugs and concentration camps.

Stay in goose step with “dear Leader trump”. Sell your soul and my kids future for your job. Even In the sheridan rodeo parade you didn’t draw much applause but a few boo’s. Could it be, even Maga is figuring out their future, they won’t be fooled forever.

How many of these disgruntled folks actually live in Wyoming…bottom line, we who live here in this beautiful state say to you educate yourselves. One here slamming the mining of coal when they are ignorant of the fact we operate under regulations of clean air and we export more coal to foreign entities than anyone. We are known as the Energy Capital of the World, we residents walk on land that has enough gas and oil resources that could supply the energy needs for many decades. Until you know what the hell you are talking about please keep your comments in check. Climate activists are basically staying silent for no evidence has been proven to even support their crazy statements, shown to be “chicken little, the sky is falling”. They got rich from this for some will fall for anything. Oh yeah, we will soon start the mining of rare earth minerals to help our country challenge China in their attempt to corner the market.
