From Keenan MOrgan for House District 58 facebook page:

My family has been in America since before its founding, arriving on my mom’s side as pilgrims and on my dad’s side as slaves. Over time, my family landed in Wyoming.

I’m the fourth generation of my family to live in Wyoming and the third to be raised here. I went to school in Bar Nunn and in Casper. I am an alum of Casper College and of the University of Wyoming. I am proud of my Wyoming history and desire to stay.

But this desire is becoming less common in our state as people leave seeking opportunities elsewhere, never to return.

60% of young people, our state’s future, choose to leave Wyoming.

Young people leave often for one simple reason: they do not see leaders building a vision of Wyoming that includes them. They do not see young leaders looking out for them.

They are driven away by a lack of educational and job opportunities, a sense of hopelessness, a lack of progress, and an increasingly divisive political landscape.

Despite this, I have decided to stay in Wyoming — not just because it is my home — but because I truly believe in what’s possible for this state.

We all share the same values and the same vision for our state:

We believe in freedom, opportunity, justice, and equality.

We all want success for our families and our community.

We understand that we must lift each other up instead of beat each other down.

We know that people need ready-access to the care and services they need.

We know that prices are too high and our government seems incapable of accountability.

We believe in fostering economic diversity and innovation in Wyoming.

We understand that in Wyoming, we have to protect public education, public lands, and access to opportunities for youth.

We believe in autonomy, protecting public institutions, ensuring integrity in government, and always putting Wyoming First and moving Wyoming Forward.

This is the Wyoming vision.

Representation across our state is struggling to lead with this vision. I am seeking to help change that.

My name is Keenan Morgan and I’m running for House District 58 because I believe in empowering a new generation to put Wyoming First and move Wyoming Forward. We need a Wyoming vision of progress, principles, and passion in politics.

I believe in listening to the community and in fighting for people-centered solutions.

I believe in accountability and looking out for those among us who are struggling.

I recognize that issues are rarely simply black and white, and understanding nuance is required to make real change last.

That is why I believe in telling the truth as I understand it — always.

I’m committed to working on real, lasting solutions that move our state forward, not throwing out buzzwords and empty promises to see what sticks.

That is why I believe in practical leadership.

This is what real representation looks like. Pushing the needle while staying true to who and what matters — you, your interests, and Wyoming’s future.

I am asking for your support in this race not because I think we will agree on 100% of the issues 100% of the time — that’s an unrealistic and dishonest expectation — but instead because I promise to always look out for your interests by putting Wyoming First and Wyoming Forward. Every time.

Decisions are made by those who show up. Whether or not you decide to vote for me in this race, if elected, I will always do what is right for you.
