Campaign themes

2016

The following issues were listed on Greene's campaign website. For a full list of campaign themes, click here.

“	Public Lands: As a hunter, fisher, and camper, Ryan loves Wyoming’s great outdoors. As Wyoming’s Congressman—he will fight to keep public lands in public hands. Diversify Wyoming’s Economy: This is Wyoming’s third bust in 60 years. We need to diversify Wyoming’s economy inside and outside the energy industry. Wyoming Democrat: Ryan’s a Wyoming Democrat—not a California Democrat—not a New York Democrat. He supports Wyoming’s energy industry, the Second Amendment, and preserving Wyoming’s wide open spaces for future generations. Taking Care of Neighbors: From your very first paycheck—you’ve paid into Social Security and Medicare. Ryan thinks you deserve to get what you’ve paid for—and he’ll stand up to the national Republicans that want to dissolve these programs. Second Amendment: As a gun owner and hunter, Ryan supports the Second Amendment. Ryan will work hard to defend it—against Democrats and Republicans that just don’t get it.	”
