Pro-Family Bills in Committee Last Week

Last week was a relatively slow one for pro-family bills in the Wyoming Legislature as bills crossed over from their chamber of origin and began the process of being heard by the opposite side of the house.

HB0199 | Wyoming Freedom Scholarship Act

HB0199, “Wyoming Freedom Scholarship Act,” had its first reading in the Senate last week, where it received several amendments, including one by Senator Wendy Schuler that added graduating levels of funds to be disbursed based on income qualifications. Several more steps in the process could result in further amendments. Wyoming Family Alliance will monitor its progress closely, advocating that families have access to as many educational opportunities for their students as possible. HB0199 is scheduled to be heard again on the Senate floor on Tuesday, 2/18/25, at 10:00 am. (Click HERE to watch.)
