CHEYENNE (WNE) — U.S. Rep. Harriet Hageman, R-Wyo., will serve as chairwoman of the Anti-Woke Caucus, a group within the House of Representatives dedicated to fighting the growing influence of “woke” ideologies in government, business and society, according to a news release from Hageman’s office.
“I am proud to assume the role of chairwoman of the Anti-Woke Caucus and continue our fight against the harmful overreach of left-wing policies,” Hageman said in the release. “Under the Biden-Harris Administration, government, educational institutions, and even corporations bent to the will of extremist leftist ideologies that undermine American principles, common-sense policies and the Constitution itself.”
She will be taking over from Sen.-elect Jim Banks, R-Ind.
Banks said in the release, “Harriet Hageman has played a critical role in our caucus since day one, and I can think of no one better to lead our members as they work alongside the Trump administration. We are winning the war against wokeness, and Republicans in Congress now have a golden opportunity to defeat it once and for all. I look forward to partnering with the Anti-Woke Caucus as a United States senator to get the job done.”
