The Wyoming House of Representative is the lower house of the state legislature. Similar to the U.S. House of Representatives, they work with Senators to create laws, set the state budget, and determine state tax rates. State Representatives are elected to a two-year term with no term limits.

Quin Blair for House District 24

I am running to restore real representation to Park County. This job is not about serving a national agenda or proving a political point. It is about listening, studying the issues, and making decisions that serve House District 24 and Wyoming.
I am a fifth-generation Park County resident, father, business leader, and longtime community volunteer. Through Blair Hotels, the Wyoming Office of Tourism Board, Park County Travel Council, and Cody Fireworks Committee, I have worked on budgets, workforce, tourism, infrastructure, public dollars, and community problem-solving.
I know how to bring people together, respect different voices, and get real work done. A representative should focus getting it right, not proving they are right.
I support meaningful, sustainable property tax relief, but I have serious concerns with this mechanism as written. Relief should help people stay in their homes without destabilizing schools, law enforcement, fire, EMS, roads, and other essential local services.
If voters choose to pass this initiative, the state cannot ignore the local revenue loss; any backfill should be targeted, transparent, and tied to essential services, not a blank check.
We also need to be careful that relief does not simply shift costs onto renters, who often pay property taxes indirectly through rent.
I oppose the broad sale or transfer of public lands. Wyoming’s public lands support our economy, traditions, wildlife, and way of life, and they should remain public.
That said, I am not opposed to every land exchange. Each case should be examined on its own merits. Any exchange should include local input, clear public benefit, improved access, respect for private property rights, and no net loss to the people of Wyoming.
No. The funding level may be appropriate if dollars are spent efficiently by the local officials elected to oversee our schools, but the current structure is broken. I support better pay for teachers, but the recent model was poorly built, reduces local control, and leaves districts with less flexibility for extracurriculars, substitute teachers, and raises for non-teaching staff.
Most concerning, it place too much of our schools’ future in the hands of the Legislature instead of local boards and communities. Wyoming should fund education responsibly, but the model must be predictable, flexible, efficient, and respectful of local control.
Public funds for social services should be used carefully, locally, and with strict accountability. I support a responsible safety net for children, seniors, veterans, people with disabilities, and families in crisis, especially when early support prevents larger taxpayer costs later in law enforcement, health care, foster care, hunger or homelessness.
Every dollar should be tied to clear outcomes, efficient delivery, and accountable oversight. Compassion and fiscal responsibility are not mutually exclusive. Government should not replace families, churches, nonprofits, or personal responsibility, but it does have a limited role in helping vulnerable people get back to their feet.
