Similar Stories to In A First, Freedom Caucus Takes Over Wyoming State House on Bing News

The beautiful state of Wyoming is unfortunately tainted by extremism, now more than ever. For the first time anywhere in the country, the hard-right Freedom Caucus has won control of a state house. Via the New York Times: After ousting a slew of Republican incumbents they viewed as too liberal in a caustic primary, and then galloping to victory in November, members of the ultraconservative caucus hope to cement their meteoric climb to power by passing five priority bills in the first 10 days. Their agenda, known as the Five and Dime Plan, aims to immediately tighten election rules, invalidate drivers’ licenses issued to undocumented immigrants by other states, prohibit college diversity initiatives, prohibit the state from considering environmental concerns when making investment decisions and reduce property taxes. “We’re going to unwoke the state,” Representative Jeremy Haroldson, the next speaker pro tem, said.
