WYOMING — Following Cynthia Lummis’ announcement that she will not seek re-election to the U.S. senate, Rep. Harriet Hageman has thrown her hat in the ring.
In a video posted Monday, the Republican announced her senate run, touting Wyoming coal production alongside her ties to President Trump.
The Douglas, Wyoming, native was elected to the House of Representatives in 2022, and re-elected last year after her tenure as an attorney in Cheyenne.
In the run-up to the 2024 election, Hageman spoke to Buckrail about the role of government in Wyoming.
“My role is not to tell my fellow Americans what they can and cannot do and micromanage their activities, but to work to constrain the overarching power of Washington, D.C.; to push to return to our constitutional framework of separation of powers; to pursue an agenda of federalism and individual freedom; and to ensure that our citizens can continue to pursue the American dream,” she said.
