The Casper Star-Tribune editorial board has agreed upon a set of overarching goals that will guide our philosophy for the year to come.

Second, we believe that in order for Wyoming to flourish, the state must diversify its economy and adjust its tax structure in order to reduce its dependency on fossil fuels and foster positive growth in Wyoming communities. The boom and bust cycle is, and will continue to be, detrimental to our economic success. Economic diversification is crucial for the future of our great state. Our editorials will aim to foster conversation about reasonable solutions to our dependency on fossil fuel extraction.
