The Legislative Session is Over. What's Next?
And what became of the last few bills on Governor Gordon's desk?
On March 6, the Wyoming Legislature gaveled out for the year, leaving a stack of important bills on Governor Gordon’s desk.
Among those bills was House Bill 156, the top priority of the WYFC.
Governor Gordon refused to sign it, allowing it to become law without his signature— and we’ll take it.
Wyoming is now the first state in America to require documentary proof of U.S. citizenship in order to vote in ALL elections.
Final passage of House Bill 156 marks the total success of our Five and Dime Plan, which included legislation to achieve immigration accountability, to protect our legacy industries and your tax dollars from woke investors, to end discriminatory DEI, and to provide lasting property tax relief.
What else got done?
Your WYFC-led House of Representatives prioritized the people’s priorities— not the deep state’s budget-busting to-do list. The House:
Passed 14 election integrity bills (6 made it into law)
Passed 2 border security bills (both made it into law)
Passed 5 anti-woke education bills (4 made it into law)
Passed 3 pro-fossil fuel bills (2 made it into law)
Passed 4 tax relief/reform bills (1 made it into law)
Passed 3 school choice bills (2 made it into law)
Passed 2 child safety bills (1 made it into law)
Passed 8 DOGE bills (1 made it into law)
Passed 3 pro life bills (2 made it into law)
Passed 2 Second Amendment bills (one made it into law)
Passed 2 medical freedom bills (none made it into law)
Before a conservative majority in the Wyoming House, achieving even one of these legislative wins would have been monumental. We’re proud of the work done on behalf of the Wyoming people this session, and are eager to get to work during the interim on more of your priorities.
What’s Next?
The Legislature’s Management Council is set to meet on Tuesday, April 8th to assign bill topics to each standing committee. Once assigned, the committees will begin meeting to craft legislation according to the assigned topics.
You can read the list of proposed topics here.
We’re not finished implementing conservative change with purpose and transparency. For years, the interim period between legislative sessions has been used to revive Uniparty zombie bills and to forward the goals of the insiders.
Between now and April 8th, you can (and should) reach out to the members of Management Council and let them know what your priorities are. After all, the members of the Legislature work for the people, even during the interim.
