Subject: John Holtz U.S. Senate
I am an Eagle Scout, and a member of the Christian Legal Society since law school. I was a Space Systems Operations Officer in the United States Air Force.
I was in the Electro Optical and Space Division of the Hughes Aircraft Company and I obtained the first double-digit firm fixed-price contract in the history of the Hughes Aircraft Company, setting a precedent that aided Hughes in becoming the largest private employer in Southern California. I was the head of the team to redesign the fire control system of the Army's main battle tank, the M60A3.
I was one of the youngest judges in Wyoming history and helped establish the Circuit Court system of today.
I will uphold the Constitution.
I would make Social Security non-taxable once again.
I would export our resources to Europe and Israel through the Strait of Gibraltar to broaden our opportunities. Wyoming is an energy treasure trove in an energy short world. Our natural resources should help our friends, not our enemies.
I would limit its application.
Legislation is needed for rural hospitals.
I have international experience and qualifications unmatched by others. I support Wyoming. God bless Wyoming and keep it wild. Wyoming should not become Disneyland.

I am running because Wyoming deserves representation from the people, not from big money, political insiders, or Washington pressure. I have no political experience, and I see that as part of the point. I come from Wyoming citizens who work, build, pay taxes, raise families, and live with the consequences of federal decisions. I swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of Wyoming. That oath still binds me. My promise is simple: seek truth, share truth, expose lies, defend liberty, and protect our Wyoming way of life.
I would support legislation that cuts waste, stops unfunded mandates, strengthens domestic energy production, lowers permitting barriers for housing and infrastructure, and protects family budgets from inflation. Wyoming families feel fuel, groceries, interest, insurance, and equipment costs every day. Congress must stop pretending borrowed money is free. I also support price transparency in health care, fair competition in agriculture and meat processing, and tax relief for working families and small businesses. I would also explore a Wyoming-style permanent fund at the federal level, funded only by real resource revenue, not debt, to reduce long-term tax pressure and protect future generations.
We need a lawful, orderly, and humane immigration system. That means securing the border, ending cartel control, speeding up lawful processing, fixing broken work-visa systems for agriculture and small business, and requiring employers to follow the law. People should not be used as political props or scapegoats. The system should protect American workers, respect due process, keep families and communities safe, and restore public trust. A serious Wyoming senator should study what has worked, listen directly to citizens, develop a clear strategy, and finally put this issue in the rearview mirror. We should not let moneyed interests use illegal immigration as a tool for division and control.
Insurance is broken for too many Wyoming families, ranchers, small businesses, and self-employed workers. We need a serious discussion about “Cowboy Care”: moving the premiums Wyoming people already pay into a state-managed purchasing pool that gives us leverage, transparency, and real bargaining power. The goal is not more Washington control. The goal is affordable care that works for Wyoming. I also support price transparency, telehealth, rural clinics, fair reimbursement, and accountability for pharmacy benefit managers. Health care should serve people, not moneyed interests.
I oppose broad sale or transfer of public lands for private gain or to cover Washington’s debt. Some land may need development, exchange, or adjustment, but that must be handled case by case with local involvement, public notice, access protections, and real oversight. Wyoming should not accept an ambiguous 0.5% to 0.75% selloff formula that could indiscriminately put millions of acres at risk. Our public lands support hunting, fishing, grazing, energy, outfitters, tourism, water, and quiet places to breathe. Public land belongs to the people and to posterity.
