Joseph Kibler Announces Candidacy for Governor of Wyoming

On January 9, 2025, I announced something that’s been building in my heart for sometime.

This decision wasn’t about chasing political titles or playing insider games. I’m not a career politician, and I don’t want to be one. This is about stepping up, standing firm, and restoring something sacred — the kind of Wyoming where Faith, Family, Freedom, and the Future actually mean something again.

Too many in government have forgotten their place. They think freedom is something to regulate, not something to protect. They think the role of government is to manage your life, not to get out of the way so you can live it. We’ve seen years — no, decades — of legislative band-aids slapped onto deep-rooted problems. But we’re done with that now.

We’re tearing it down to the studs and rebuilding a government that honors your values, respects your rights, and remembers its job: to serve the people. In my announcement, I made it clear that I’m not here to tweak around the edges. I’m not here to market old ideas with new slogans. I’m here to lead with solutions. That means starting from the foundation — and that foundation is our faith, our families, our liberty, and our legacy.

This campaign is for the parents who want to raise their children without fear of state interference. It’s for the ranchers and workers who feel buried under red tape. It’s for the churches that have stayed strong even as culture and government tried to silence their voice. It’s for every Wyomingite who’s been told to sit down, comply, or keep quiet.

We can’t legislate our way out of a culture crisis. But we can lead with courage, and rebuild with conviction. When I say “Give Freedom Back,” I mean it. Because real freedom doesn’t need permission.

We don’t need more middlemen. We need more straight talk. We need action. We need a government that works for the people who actually live here, not the special interests who try to run everything from D.C. or Cheyenne. This isn’t just my campaign — it’s ours. And together, we’re going to do something bold, something different, something worth handing down to our children and grandchildren.

Let’s make history together. Here’s how you can help:

We’ve got a long road ahead, but it’s the right road — and I’m honored to walk it with you.​

Let’s Give Freedom Back — because real freedom doesn’t need permission.
