Jim Byrd from Cheyenne steps into the spotlight for Wyoming’s open Senate seat

Jim Byrd from Cheyenne steps into the spotlight for Wyoming’s open Senate seat

A long-time Democratic state lawmaker from Cheyenne has thrown his hat into the ring in the race for Wyoming’s open U.S. Senate Seat.

Byrd Spent A Decade In The Wyoming House

Jim Byrd represented District 44 in the Wyoming House from 2009 to 2019. A news release announcing his Senate run says “he has a significant list of bipartisan legislative accomplishments throughout his tenure, including time as Minority Leader. Chief among them is sponsoring bills related to fair employment practices, increasing the state’s minimum wage and improving voting rights.”

Byrd is the son of long-time legislator Liz Byrd, who is perhaps best known for her tireless efforts to get a holiday honoring Martin Luther King Jr. approved in Wyoming despite significant opposition. Liz Byrd sponsored a Martin Luther King holiday bill nine times before succeeding in her quest when Wyoming finally recognized the slain civil rights leader in 1990.

The release announcing Jim Byrd’s senate run says he is determined to be Wyoming’s representative to Washington D.C. and not Washington’s representative to Wyoming. He believes in education for everyone, public lands in public hands, and that healthcare is the bedrock of a strong and thriving community.

Wyoming last elected a Democrat to the U.S. Senate when incumbent Gale McGee won re-election in 1970. The last time the Cowboy State sent any Democrat to either house of congress was 1976, when Teno Roncalio of Rock Springs won his re-election bid.

Senator Cynthia Lummis, who currently holds the seat, is retiring. Congresswoman Harriet Hageman is widely considered the frontrunner for the Republican nomination for the seat.
