2018 WY Senate race: on Homeland Security

Gary Trauner: We don't need government prying into our everyday lives

We need a well-run and effective government. We simply cannot afford a country overseen by those who don't believe in the mission of the very organization they run and who express disdain for the very institutions our Founding Fathers put in place. We don't need government prying into our everyday lives, telling us what to think or who to love, where to worship. I will fight to ensure that government does what it should and keeps its nose out of our lives where it shouldn't. Source: 2018 Wyoming Senatorial campaign website TraunerForWY.com Feb 22, 2018

Gary Trauner: Fight to remove the political manipulations on veterans

I WILL never forget America's solemn commitment with America's veterans--to ensure that they are treated with the dignity & respect they deserve
I WILL fight for a dedicated funding stream, free from political manipulation
I WILL fight to improve access and reduce backlogs for all veterans
I WILL never forget that the best way to ensure the health & safety of our armed service members is to ensure that armed conflict is a last resort after all other options have been exhausted.
