Wyoming Republican Representative Harriet Hageman has once again found herself facing an angry crowd while attempting to defend a Trump administration policy.
The congresswoman tried to justify the government’s planned repeal of the Environmental Protection Agency’s landmark “endangerment finding” to a crowd of voters at a town hall event in the rural town of Pinedale, Wyoming.
The Endangerment Finding is a determination by the EPA that greenhouse gases in the atmosphere pose a threat to public health and welfare, requiring action to reduce emissions. It is based on extensive scientific evidence linking such gases to climate change.
“The endangerment finding is absolutely based upon false science,” Hageman claimed. Her comments were met with a chorus of boos and heckles, with locals shouting, “No!” and others chanting, “Lie, lie!” as she attempted to press on.

As a note - WY only has a single "at-Large" seat. This used to be the seat that Lynne Cheney held.
