The Cowboy State Leads the Way: Wyoming’s Year of Big Wins for Freedom

In this episode of American Potential , host David From sits down with Tyler Lindholm, State Director for Americans for Prosperity–Wyoming and a true cowboy at heart, to unpack a banner year for freedom in the Cowboy State. From passing universal education savings accounts to overriding the governor’s veto of the REINS Act, Tyler shares how Wyoming is becoming a model for liberty-minded policy. They dig into the repeal of outdated certificate of need laws, the fight to give parents more control over their children’s education, and how empowering legislators—not unelected regulators—restores government accountability. Tyler also previews bold new priorities for next year, including judicial reform, fighting unnecessary AI regulations, and eliminating absurd licensing mandates. This episode shows how grassroots energy, principled leadership, and a commitment to freedom can transform even the smallest state into a laboratory for liberty. If you want to see what’s possible when government gets out of the way—Wyoming just might be your blueprint.
