WyoRINO 2023

WyoRINO 2023 Legislative Scorecards are Live!

During the 2023 Legislative Session, the divide within the Republican caucus became even more obvious. After analyzing dozens of bills and thousands of roll call votes, WyoRINO has come to the same conclusion we arrive at every year at this time: a legislator with a RINO score of 10% on 50 bills will, without fail, retain their abysmal score when only 10 bills are considered. A RINO is a RINO 100% of the time, and no allegations of “cherry picking” can change that.

Our legislators had countless opportunities to prove their Republican credentials to us this session. Lucky for us, recorded votes on issues important to Wyoming Republicans can be found here, and recorded votes on nearly every other bill can be found at wyoleg.gov.

As always, please keep in mind that WyoRINO is not affiliated with the Wyoming State Republican Party. However, just as the election integrity process is something to be mindful of, so is the integrity of the Republican party and the candidates who run on the Republican ticket. It is up to us to expose RINO legislators who are Dems in sheep’s clothing.

Help us continue our mission to expose WyoRINOs in our state and encourage true, practicing Republicans to represent the people of Wyoming!

What is a RINO? A Republican in Name Only

Have you as a loyal Republican, gone to the polls year after year, voting for candidates with an “R” beside their name, trusting they would legislate and vote like a Republican but only to be disappointed?

Don’t feel bad – so have we.

The time is long overdue to hold politicians accountable for big government, big regulation, big taxation laws – values that the Republican party does NOT support.

This is the primary reason WyoRINO.com was created – to expose liberal Wyoming Republicans who violate our Wyoming Republican values.

WyoRINO.com is an index that is based on the Platform and the Resolutions of the Wyoming Republican Party, which are passed in convention every two years by thousands of elected grass roots Republicans.  This valuable tool scores Wyoming legislators based on their adherence to the timeless Republican values which will always inform and direct our party and country, regardless of current events.  These lofty principles include but are not limited to, adherence to U.S. Constitution, the defense of life, liberty and property, limited government, freedom of religion, the right to bear arms, fiscal responsibility and a free market economy.

If your Wyoming state senator or representative ran on the Republican Party ticket, it is correct and logical to assume that once elected, your legislator will actually vote like a Republican.  Far too often, however, that is not the case.  This is why WyoRINO.com was established – to expose liberal Wyoming Republicans who hold office.

The percentages which are indicated on the Voting Index reflect the cumulative scores based on ten key votes during each Wyoming Legislative session.  These particular bills were chosen by Ride for the Brand, Wyoming due to their easily identifiable traits in relation to Republican values. To examine the bills which were rated and their explanation, click on the WyoRINO Voting Index tab.

We encourage readers to examine how their own state legislators voted on each of the ten key measures. Ride for the Brand, Wyoming believes that a score below 70% indicates a RINO legislator. In the world of education, anything below 70% is considered a failing grade and we agree.

We also encourage readers and voters to commend their legislators for their constitutional votes and urge improvement where needed.
