CHUCK GRAY RECEIVES FIFTH ENDORSEMENT FROM STATE HOUSE COLLEAGUE 

Casper, Wyoming — Chuck Gray continues to rack up the endorsements. On the heels of four endorsements from colleagues in the Wyoming State House over the last two weeks, Republican State Representative Chuck Gray announces the endorsement of Representative Jeremy Haroldson (Sheridan-4) in his bid to take back Wyoming’s lone congressional seat. 

Representative Haroldson joins Representatives Clarence Styvar (Cheyenne-12), John Bear (Gillette-31), Mark Jennings (Sheridan-30), and Chip Neiman (Hulett-1) in endorsing Chuck.

“The overwhelming support I am receiving from my Republican colleagues in the State House is truly humbling. Our campaign continues to pick up momentum in the fight to defeat Out-of-Touch Liz” Representative Gray said, “I look forward to continuing to earn the support and trust of more colleagues in the Wyoming State House.”

Over the last month Chuck Gray has had two sponsored pieces of legislation signed into law by Governor Gordon, earned Wyoming Right to Life’s highest honor, the Platinum Medal, was rated the most conservative candidate for Congress in Wyoming by the American Conservative Union Foundation (ACUF), and has been endorsed by five of the most staunchly conservative members of the Wyoming State House.

CHUCK GRAY RATED MOST CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATE FOR CONGRESS IN WYOMING

Casper, Wyoming — The American Conservative Union Foundation (ACUF), host of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), has just released the 50th Edition of its annual Ratings of Congress. Chuck Gray is rated the most conservative of the three candidates for Wyoming’s At-Large Congressional seat.

In honor of the 50th Anniversary of the scorecard, ACUF has released a comprehensive new platform to help better hold lawmakers accountable to conservative principles. The system demonstrates which lawmakers vote more conservatively than others, and even allows users to compare Members of Congress with state lawmakers. 

Liz Cheney scored abysmally low with a 74% rating across 186 policy areas, while Representative Chuck Gray earned a rating of 94%. State Senator Anthony Bouchard ranked between Gray and Cheney, earning a rating of 90%.

“I’m honored to be recognized by the American Conservative Union as the most conservative candidate running for Congress. Wyoming’s conservative voters can count on me” Gray said. 

After sponsoring key pieces of legislation that were signed into law during the 2021 Wyoming legislative session, Chuck Gray is continuing to build momentum. 

From receiving key endorsements from half a dozen conservative leaders in the Wyoming State House, to the announcement of the most cash on hand of any Cheney challenger, and being awarded the Platinum Medal from Wyoming Right to Life, Chuck is setting himself apart from the rest of the field as the strongest challenger to Cheney in the 2022 midterm elections.

Conservative Representative Chip Neiman of House District 1 has pledged his support to Chuck saying, 

“I endorse Chuck Gray for Congress because Chuck cares about and respects the wishes of the people of Wyoming.  Chuck understands the financial situation we are in as a nation and will fight for our nation with Wyoming values of responsibility, integrity, and accountability.  Chuck has a deep respect for life as evidenced in his fight for pro-life legislation as a State Representative.  I believe Chuck will fight to preserve and protect our 2nd amendment rights nationally as he has proven to do so locally. Chuck is committed to protecting Wyoming’s way of doing business.  I know Chuck will hear us and represent the people and our conservative values.  We need leadership that remembers who elected them.  I believe Chuck Gray is that Leader. Therefore I support Chuck for Congress.”

The overwhelming support I am receiving from my Republican colleagues in the State House is truly humbling. Our campaign continues to pick up momentum and the support of conservative leaders from every corner of our state.”

This endorsement comes on the heels of Gray announcing the endorsements of State Representatives John Bear and Clarence Styvar last week and Representative Mark Jennings earlier this week, as well as being only one of three legislators to receive the Platinum Medal from Wyoming Right to Life, their highest honor.

CHUCK GRAY RECEIVES PLATINUM MEDAL FROM WYOMING RIGHT TO LIFE 

Casper, Wyoming — Wyoming State Representative Chuck Gray announced today that he was one of only three Legislators in the Wyoming State Legislature to receive Wyoming Right to Life’s highest award, the Platinum Medal. 

 
Wyoming’s Right to Life’s mission “is to educate the people of Wyoming concerning the reality and tragic consequences of abortion, infanticide, embryonic stem cell research, and euthanasia, including physician-assisted suicide.” Wyoming Right to Life will be recognizing the honorees in person at their conference in Riverton on June 26th. 

Chuck is one of the founders of Natrona County Right to Life and a leading advocate for the unborn in the Wyoming Legislature.  

“I am 100% pro-life.  I was the lead sponsor on the ultrasound bill in 2017 which was the first pro-life bill passed in Wyoming in 30 years. I passed a budget amendment last year that stopped the University of Wyoming from covering abortion in student health plans, which was codified in this years legislative session and signed into law by the Governor. 

I was also the lead sponsor of HB 134, The Human Heartbeat Protection Act in 2021,” said Representative Gray.

The announcement of this award comes on the heels of a strong few weeks on the campaign trail for Chuck in his race to unseat Liz Cheney. 

From receiving key endorsements from conservative leaders in the Wyoming State House, to having multiple pieces of legislation signed into law by the Governor earlier this month, to the announcement of the most cash on hand of any Cheney challenger, Chuck is separating himself from the rest of the field as the strongest challenger to Cheney in the 2022 midterm elections.

CHUCK GRAY RECEIVES ENDORSEMENT FROM ANOTHER CONSERVATIVE STATE LEGISLATOR

Casper, Wyoming — Wyoming State Representative Chuck Gray announces another endorsement from a colleague in the State House. Representative Mark Jennings (Sheridan-30) has jumped on board to support Chuck Gray’s candidacy for Wyoming’s At-Large Congressional seat.

Rep. Jennings said, “Representative Chuck Gray’s attention to detail and willingness to stand up and not back down to pressure makes him the most qualified candidate for Wyoming’s lone U.S. House Representative seat! I have faced many political battles with Chuck and he has remained true to his core beliefs.  I am proud to stand with him in this battle and fully endorse Chuck Gray for the U.S. House of Representatives.” 

Representative Gray said, “Mark is a dear friend and I am incredibly grateful for his support. Every day our campaign is is building more and more momentum to unseat Liz Cheney. 

From two high profile bills, ending taxpayer-funded abortions and requiring I.D. to vote, signed by the Governor, to multiple endorsements from my conservative colleagues in the House, and the most cash on hand of any candidate challenging Liz Cheney, our campaign is gathering steam to primary victory.”

This endorsement comes on the heels of Gray announcing the endorsements of State Representatives John Bear and Clarence Styvar last week.

4-15-2021 - CHUCK GRAY LEADS CHENEY CHALLENGERS IN CASH-ON-HAND

Casper, Wyoming — Wyoming State Representative Chuck Gray announced $164,248 cash on hand at the end of the first fundraising quarter, making him the cash on hand leader of the Republican candidates challenging incumbent Liz Cheney. Gray only entered the race for Congress a few short weeks ago. 

This comes on the heels of Gray announcing the endorsements of State Representatives John Bear and Clarence Styvar, two of the most rock-ribbed conservatives in the Wyoming legislature. 

Representative Gray said, “I’m incredibly grateful for all the support we’ve received.  I think this clearly demonstrates that the people of Wyoming don’t want a politician who claims to be a conservative when election time comes then folds to the establishment as soon as they’re sworn in. 

In the last week alone my bills to end taxpayer funding of abortions in Wyoming and require voter ID have become state law. I believe voters want a proven conservative.” 

The campaign’s senior strategist Rory McShane said, “Between two crucial bills signed into law, endorsements from conservative Wyoming leaders and the most cash on hand of the candidates challenging Liz Cheney — it’s clear conservatives are rallying around Chuck Gray, because he’s the candidate with a proven conservative record, not conservative tweets.”

He has kept his pledge to oppose any and all tax increases in the Wyoming Legislature and will continue to oppose increases in the United States Congress.

 

Representative Gray said, “we must reign in the out-of-control growth in federal spending and keep the hard-earned dollars of everyday Americans in their wallets. I am proud to once again sign the Taxpayer Protection Pledge protecting the livelihoods of every taxpayer in Wyoming.”

 CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN CHUCK GRAY ANNOUNCES FOR CONGRESS
A steadfast conservative with a proven record, Gray enters race to defend Wyoming values

Casper, Wyoming — After countless conversations with citizens throughout the State, conservative State Representative Chuck Gray announced this morning that he would seek the Republican Party’s 2022 nomination to represent Wyoming in the United States House of Representatives.

“Wyoming is a State where people say what they mean and mean what they say,” said Chuck Gray, Republican candidate for the United States Congress. “We are straight-shooting, hardworking people that understand the importance of having a Member of Congress that represents our shared values.”

“Instead, we have a self-serving politician from Virginia who believes that representing Wyoming is her birthright rather than a great privilege and high honor,” Gray continued. “Liz Cheney had her chance, but the last straw for Wyoming was her disgraceful betrayal of our wishes by supporting Nancy Pelosi’s false narrative and voting to impeach President Donald J. Trump.  President Trump has been loyal to Wyoming and has accomplished tremendous work for our state and country.   

“It is abundantly clear to those of us who actually live in Wyoming that Liz Cheney views her positions as nothing more than a stepping stone, and we’re just supposed to go along with it. Well, not anymore. Wyoming agrees with President Trump . . . it is time to get rid of Liz Cheney,” said Gray. “My proven record of leadership for the people of Wyoming is the polar opposite of hers, and it is why I am proud to announce my intent to seek the Republican Party’s nomination to serve the citizens of Wyoming in the United States House of Representatives.”

Last month, a McLaughlin poll showed Chuck Gray as the strongest contender to take on Liz Cheney, defeating her 55% to 20% among Republican voters in a hypothetical match-up. When specifically looking at self-identified Trump supporters, that margin increased with Gray defeating Cheney 62% to 12%.

Chuck Gray’s proven conservative track record is evident.  The Club for Growth – the nation’s leading group promoting economic freedom through legislative involvement, issue advocacy, research, and education – ranked Gray in the top six legislators in the State of Wyoming and recognized his lifetime conservative record with a Defender of Economic Freedom Award. Only three legislators from each chamber received this honor.  In each of his four years as a Wyoming state legislator, the American Conservative Union has also awarded Chuck for his conservative voting record at CPAC.

“At the end of the day, this campaign is about the People of Wyoming. I believe that the values we share are being under-represented by our current Member of Congress. Rather than having a representative that the People can count on, we are saddled with a politician who cares more about her career than the hardworking men and women who sent her to Washington. Enough is enough,” Gray concluded.
