U.S. Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., has officially endorsed U.S. Rep. Harriet Hageman, R-Wyo., for Wyoming’s 2026 Senate race. It’s a significant early move from the Senate majority whip, highlighting Hageman’s standing within the Republican Party.

Wyoming’s only member of the U.S. House of Representatives, Harriet Hageman, announced she will run for the Senate seat being vacated by Sen. Cynthia Lummis. Lummis, who is not seeking a second term, made her intentions clear on Friday, setting the stage for Hageman’s early entry into the race.
