JACKSON — When a gunman shot and killed conservative commentator Charlie Kirk at a Utah political event in September, Elaina Wronko, 16, jumped into action.

With the help of some Teton County conservatives, Wronko started a Turning Point USA Chapter. She considered Kirk a role model and is proud to start a Jackson chapter of Kirk’s organization. The group is called “Club America” for high school chapters.

JACKSON — The Department of the Interior last month ordered National Park Service superintendents to give most employees performance evaluations that said they met, but did not exceed, expectations.

Officials told park leaders that most employees should get a grade of 3, meaning that they had achieved their goals, rather than a 4 or 5, which are for exceeding expectations.

Park Service watchdogs are critical of the move.

“What they’re doing is discarding transparent standards,” said Tim Whitehouse, executive director of the Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility. “They’re overriding the professional judgment of those in the field, and they’re undermining the foundations of merit-based civil service.”

When Wyoming residents call 911 with a medical emergency, they expect an ambulance with paramedics and EMTs to show up at their house. Most people view emergency medical services, just like the police department, sheriff’s office and fire department, as being an essential service.

But what many don’t realize is that, in Wyoming, emergency medical services are not considered essential in the eye of the law.

In Wyoming, law enforcement and fire protection are essential services, meaning the government has a legal obligation to fund them. EMS does not have that same statutory designation. There is no legal responsibility for anyone in Wyoming to operate an ambulance service.
