Tim French began serving as a Wyoming legislator in 2021 after he won the 2020 election for Park County Senate District 18.

He is up for reelection in 2024.


French noted that while those [minerals] industries are thriving right now, they remain “under assault” from President Joseph Biden’s administration. Biden campaigned on “going to end oil” and the country is currently producing 1 million barrels per day less oil than it did prior to the beginning of the Covid pandemic, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

The uncertainty about the future of the industry makes the governor’s savings proposal more important than ever, French said.

“My time on the legislature has taught me there are good times and bad times, and the good times don’t last forever,” French said. “So we need to save every dime while we can.”
