Republican Shannon Brennan will run against incumbent Democrat Liz Storer in this year’s election to represent a large swath of Teton County in the Wyoming House of Representatives.

Background and Priorities

Brennan, a Moran resident, is an energy and environmental consultant with 35 years of governmental experience with the U.S. Department of Energy, Dept. of the Treasury, Dept. of Health and Human Services, and other federal and state agencies. She has served on boards at St. John’s Health and on the Teton District Board of Health along with the Governor’s Groundwater Advisory Committee.

Brennan laid out her campaign priorities: conservation and land use, affordability, health care, housing, mineral extraction, elder care, and education. She aims to create new and push people into talking and finding their common ground and actually developing stronger, closer relationships.

When I saw the division in the legislature during this last budget session, I saw room for improvement. I spent 35 years working in government; I feel like I’m in the zone, Brennan said.

District 23 covers a lot of ground, including: Skyline/Hi-Country/Gros Ventre Butte, North Jackson, Mid Jackson – Hillside, Rafter J, Southeast of Jackson/East Hoback, Indian Trails, Kelly/Moose/Airport, Moran, Moose/Wilson Road, Teton Village/Moose/Wilson Road, and Alta.
