COMMUNITY NEWS

ECONOMY NEWS
- ➤ A new study finds that federal Medicaid cuts in the Big Beautiful Bill will shrink Wyoming’s economy by $140 million over five years and cost nearly 200 jobs a year — many in health care, construction, retail and government. In contrast, expanding Medicaid could add 440 new jobs over five years and boost GDP by $60.9 million annually — a lost chance to improve economic growth in areas like Cheyenne. Cap City News
EDUCATION NEWS
