Rachel Rodriguez-Williams seeks second term as HD 50 rep

Posted

Rachel Rodriguez-Williams of Cody is unopposed in the Republican primary election as she runs for a second term in the Wyoming State House of Representatives from House District 50.

She should advance to the November general election. There she will face a challenge from Carrie Satterwhite of Ralston who has filed for the seat as a libertarian.

Rodriguez-Williams describes herself as a conservative Republican seeking reelection to continue working hard for the people.  She was the lead sponsor of the trigger bill in the 2022 Legislature that was activated by the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, resulting in an abortion ban in Wyoming.

“I have lived up to my campaign promises during my first term in office. I will continue to be honest, transparent, approachable and responsive,” she said. “I fought hard during my first term in office for the people of HD 50.”

As a conservative Republican, she said she believes wholeheartedly in the Wyoming Republican Party Platform.

Rodriguez-Williams is concerned by the rise in property taxes.

“The voice of residents in Park County needs to trump the voice of lobbyists in Cheyenne that are preventing legislation from being passed,” she added. “We must pass a bill that addresses property tax stabilization in a fair way.”

The Republican majority in the Legislature should push back against the Biden administration and federal overreach to protect the energy industry, she stressed. 

“We need to ban Critical Race Theory in K-12 schools, community colleges and the University of Wyoming,” she said. “We need to protect in women’s sports, stop ESG (Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance) and restore election confidence by preventing crossover voting into our Republican primary.”
