Biteman, Bo

+ + +

Bo Biteman has served as a WY Senator for Senate District 21 for Sheridan County from 2019 to the present.  He also served Sheridan County in House District 51 from 2017 to 2018.  He has received a positive score for all three categories of Representation, Competence and Integrity and therefore has been ranked as High Trust.

He is up for reelection in 2026.

Bo is a strong believer of individual, religious liberty which comes from our Creator and not forced on us by the government. Additionally, the right of free speech is ingrained in our constitution and applies to all of us, whether they agree with us or not.

​

“Christians have been witnessing an unprecedented attack on our right to freely exercise our religion by liberal progressives who use the government (including the courts stacked with leftist judges) to force acceptance of their agenda on us. I will not be intimidated by the intolerant far-left activists pushing their radical agenda on the Wyoming people.”
