The John Barrasso we thought we sent to Washington has gone missing. As proud conservatives, we stand for strong borders, fiscal responsibility, defending the Second Amendment, and ensuring energy independence. Sadly, Wyoming Senator Barrasso has done nothing to protect these principles and has actively weakened America’s stance.

We deserve better than the D.C. elite John Doe we’ve got now. While you may not recognize him any longer, the information below can help you identify who he really is. Click the topics below to learn about Senator John Barrasso’s failures, his support of the radical left, and abandonment of America.

Barrasso's Economic Missteps

Senator Barrasso talks a good game about supporting a free-market economy, but his voting record reveals a starkly different story. He’s backed big government bailouts and wasteful spending that have ballooned our national debt for the last twenty years. Real conservatives know that economic freedom and limited government drive prosperity, by that logic John is far away from conservative. It’s time we hold Barrasso accountable for his big-government spending habits and lying to the American people about them.

Voting Record Examples:

Barrasso's Border Security Shortcomings

Despite his tough rhetoric on immigration, Senator Barrasso hasn’t delivered the real solutions we need to secure our borders. He’s supported measures that weaken our immigration system and hasn’t taken a firm stand against sanctuary cities, allowing millions of illegals to vote and change the outcome of our elections. Worst of all: he opposed President Trump’s border policy, voting against it and preventing progress in 2017-18. Conservatives demand strong, effective border security to protect American jobs and uphold the rule of law, Senator Barrasso hasn’t delivered and is standing in the way of our national security.

Voting Record Examples:

Barrasso's Unsteady Support for the Second Amendment

Senator Barrasso claims to champion our Second Amendment rights, but his actions suggest otherwise. He’s considered legislation that threatens to infringe on our freedoms including red-flag laws, bump-stock bans, and increased background checks and waiting periods for all firearms not just handguns. His willingness to compromise on gun control shows a lack of commitment to protecting our constitutional rights. Wyoming deserves a senator who stands firm in defending the Second Amendment without compromising gun owners rights, that Senator isn’t John.

Voting and Support Record Examples:

Barrasso's Healthcare Hypocrisy

Senator Barrasso has failed to repeal and replace Obamacare, despite years of promises. His votes against private health insurance provisions have lead to increased premiums and decrease in the number of small clinics around the country, devastating small practices. Instead of advocating for free-market healthcare solutions, he’s settled for the status quo. True conservatives understand that government-run healthcare isn’t the answer. All the while his pocketbooks have been lined by more than $130,000 of big-pharma donations. We need a senator who will fight for patient-centered, market-based reforms that increase choice and lower costs, as a doctor you’d think Barrasso would agree.

Voting Record Examples:

Barrasso's Energy Independence Betrayal

While Senator Barrasso claims to support energy independence, his actions tell a different story. Allowing the Powder Wind Basin coal mile to be shuttered, thousands of jobs potentially lost overnight, he has failed all workers in Wyoming’s energy sector and has allowed us to be reliant on foreign interests for energy for the last decade. He’s failed to push back against regulations that stifle our energy sector and harm Wyoming's economy. We need a senator who will fight to unleash America’s energy potential, support coal and natural gas, and ensure that Wyoming remains a leader in energy production.

Voting Record Examples:

Barrasso's Fiscal Irresponsibility

Senator Barrasso talks about cutting taxes and reducing government spending, but his voting record shows he’s supported numerous budget increases and wasteful spending projects that have bankrupted America. Approving trillions in stimulus and bailouts he has never been committed to economic responsibility, but that won’t stop him from lying and saying he is. True fiscal conservatives demand accountability and real cuts to government waste. Wyoming needs a senator who will genuinely fight to reduce the size and scope of government.

Voting Record Examples:

Barrasso's Weak Foreign Policy

Senator Barrasso has failed to stand up for America’s interests on the global stage. Supporting actively spending billions on foreign nations that have stalled or remain detrimental to American interests including Iran in the past. He’s supported foreign aid packages that waste taxpayer money and fail to prioritize American security. True conservatives believe in a strong national defense and a foreign policy that puts America first. His support for wars is compounded by over $100,000 of money from major defense corporations during times of war. We need a senator who will defend our sovereignty and ensure our resources are used wisely, not wasted on nonsense.
