The Sheridan County Democrats recently posted an informative piece about Megan Degenfelder and her nasty accusations that Wyoming Educators and Teachers are teaching porn and bullying students.

The WyoDems are doing a TikTok series about this as well. Check that out here.

But really, y’all did all the work! We just followed directions and stuffed the bags full! I kept thinking about how excited I would have been to get one of those bags when I was a kid. *Big Smiles*

Thanks, JC-FFF, for the kind words.

What Can Be Done About Real Estate Taxes?
WEDNESDAY NIGHT – 10/11/2023 – 7:00pm
Teton County Library’s Swap Meet presents Liz Storer and Dan Dockstader in a discussion with Q&A on this crucial issue. “Increases in property values continue to drive property taxes sky-high in Teton County, making it challenging for many in the valley to continue to live here. Legislators from NW Wyoming, where residents are being hit the hardest, responded by sponsoring successful legislation to expand the state property tax refund program, give counties the ability to implement their own refund program, and put a constitutional amendment on the ballot in 2024 to create greater flexibility in our property tax system. But there are more steps to consider; helping citizens understand Wyoming’s tax policy framework and the tradeoffs and challenges inherent in that framework can help them be effective advocates for this important issue.”
