Gillette resident Vicki Swenson has set a powerful example in a recent letter to the editor in the Gillette News Record.
Swenson celebrated the passing of HB4, “Medicaid for Moms,” and praised the work done by many lawmakers. But she also decried the disinformation being spread by too many lawmakers. (Read the whole piece here.)
Swenson commented:
“At a recent public meeting, two of Campbell County’s representatives made claims that did not correctly describe this vital legislation and its costs. The level of misinformation being circulated by some of our local elected officials is unacceptable.
My takeaway from being in Cheyenne for the entire session is that many legislators — including some Campbell County legislators —received inaccurate information prior to and during the session.“
