Create Ashanti Alert System for notice of missing adults

Both Tribes have emphasized the need to address the epidemic of missing person cases afflicting Tribal communities. To help counter this ongoing tragedy, I established the Wyoming Missing and Murdered Indigenous Persons Task Force. Their work has resulted in several recommendations, among them is creating the Ashanti Alert System. It is a needed solution to help all Wyoming people. It will function similarly to an AMBER alert, quickly sending notifications to the public about missing adults. Source: 2023 State of the State Address to the Wyoming legislature , Jan 11, 2023

More funding for local police and sheriff's offices

We need to support our local police departments, sheriff's offices, fire halls; our local communities. I believe the best decisions are made closest to where the impact of those decisions is felt. It is also at the local level where individuals and entrepreneurs can spur new businesses that align with a community's values and assets.

I applaud Governor Mead's dedication to providing funding to locals these past eight years, and I will continue that work. But beyond dollars, I hope to move forward with improving the tools required for cities, towns and counties to prosper. This means finding ways to enhance the services of the State Loan and Investment Board.
