**Conservative Champion Degenfelder Launches Gubernatorial Bid with Trump’s Strong Backing**
Megan Degenfelder officially announced her candidacy for Governor of Wyoming on Monday, buoyed by a resounding endorsement from former President Donald Trump.
Her statement follows weeks of speculation about her intentions to run for the Republican nomination in a race that is expected to be competitive.
Trump’s enthusiastic message on his Truth Social account, urging Degenfelder to “RUN, MEGAN RUN!”, has energized her campaign and underscored the alignment of her values with those of Trump’s base.
Degenfelder, currently serving as Wyoming's Superintendent of Public Instruction, emphasized her commitment to protecting the state’s resources and traditional values, particularly in the face of what she termed "coastal elites and liberal activists" threatening jobs in the oil, gas, and coal industries.
Her personal connection to Wyoming runs deep, with six generations of her family calling the Cowboy State home. Raised in a ranching family, Degenfelder’s experience in the energy sector informs her policies and priorities as she seeks to champion local interests.
“I will stop at nothing to protect Wyoming values,” she asserted, highlighting her dedication to combatting the liberal agenda that seeks to redefine gender and undermine traditional family structures.
Degenfelder also expressed her desire for improved educational opportunities, having previously championed school choice initiatives during her tenure as Superintendent. Her advocacy for transparency in education aligns her closely with many of Trump’s own policies aimed at reducing federal overreach in local school systems.
While her candidacy could face challenges from other Republican contenders, including former state legislators and a Republican who switched to independent, her successful electoral history provides a robust foundation for her campaign.
Importantly, Degenfelder’s stance on cultural issues resonates deeply with the Republican voter base. Her past initiatives to address concerns over explicit material in school libraries and the push for greater parental control over educational content highlight her commitment to family-oriented values.
As she embarks on this gubernatorial journey, her coalition of supporters, bolstered by Trump’s powerful influence, signals a revitalization of conservative principles in Wyoming politics.
Degenfelder’s determination to rally Wyomingites around the core values of energy independence, traditional education, and family preservation may just pave the way for a groundbreaking gubernatorial victory in 2026.
