President Donald Trump welcomed both Democratic and Republican governors to the White House this morning for a bipartisan meeting.

As that gathering was underway, the U.S. Supreme Court handed down its major ruling on tariffs, a decision that could affect a number of states, including Wyoming, where trade and energy production play an important role in the state's economy.

Wyoming's Republican governor, Mark

Gordon, attended the morning's gathering of governors and joins us now. Thanks for being here.

Wonderful to be here. Thanks so much. I want to start with trade since the Supreme Court, as you know,

struck down the administration's tariffs. How does that decision change the outlook for Wyoming

producers and exporters, especially ranchers,

energy companies, for instance, that rely on global markets?

Well, I think that's a good question.

What I would say is that we had already started some work with Japan and other countries

in Asia to talk about getting our natural gas off the West Coast,

be able to get our coal off the West Coast.

It's not really clear to us exactly how this trade decision will change that.

I think Japan, for example, was very high.

Governor Lujan Grisham and I were in Japan last year, and they were very high on the notion of being able to buy American energy.

We hope this continues, and that trade deficit is able to be decreased.

What are you hearing from industry in your state?

We were all beginning to adjust to it.

Our ability to, first off, beef is a big part of our economy.

Our concerns were domestic consumers.

The market's been really quite good.

As far as energy is concerned, you know, our interest is being able to get that offshore.
