Priority Issues:

I want to be very clear about where my priorities and focus will be:

Creating and maintaining jobs, and sustaining our tourism industry

Drawing the line on spending - with declining energy revenues, we need to think, plan and act with fiscal responsibility on a statewide basis

Protecting Wyoming's working ranchlands, open space, wildlife and the special places for generations to come
