Senator Cynthia Lummis, who represents Wyoming in the U.S. Senate, shared several updates on her official Twitter account regarding local energy industry events and national policy issues.

On August 7, 2025, Senator Lummis highlighted a visit to a prominent state coal facility. She posted: “Great to be at Kemmerer Coal Mine today with @SecretaryLCD to talk up what is likely the oldest continually operating mine in the United States. These workers keep our lights on and our energy costs low. Thank you, Wyoming coal miners!” The Kemmerer Coal Mine has been recognized for its long history of continuous operation, contributing significantly to Wyoming’s economy and the region’s energy supply.

The following day, August 8, 2025, Senator Lummis reflected on recent achievements by posting: “200 days of promises kept. This is the Golden Age.”

Later that same day, she addressed concerns about voting rights in Washington D.C., stating: “It’s a privilege to be a citizen of the greatest nation. The DC City Council’s move to allow non-citizens to vote in our capital’s elections erodes the foundation of our democracy. Proud to join @SenKatieBritt in protecting the sanctity of our democracy.” In this message, Lummis expressed opposition to recent decisions by the D.C. City Council permitting non-citizen residents to participate in local elections.

Senator Cynthia Lummis has served as Wyoming’s U.S. Senator since 2021 and is known for her advocacy on behalf of Wyoming’s mining sector and her stances on election integrity.
