LETTER: Young people are a precious commodity

Dear Editor,

Wyoming's most valuable and precious resource are the young families

who choose to live and work in Wyoming and raise their families here.

Why don't  the governor and state legislature invest time and money and

attention to this essential resource?

Many other states strengthen and support young families by making the

programs available and accessible (like early childhood education/day

care, affordable and available medical care including mental health

care, affordable housing and a livable minimum wage) to this essential

part of Wyoming's economy.

One would think that the out of staters who make Wyoming their second

home in order to benefit from no income tax and the extractive

industries make Wyoming's communities so wonderful.
