The Voting Record does not reflect all elements considered by a lawmaker when voting, nor does it represent a complete profile of a legislator, but it can be a guide in evaluat- ing a legislator’s attitude toward small business. Many issues affecting small business are decided in committees and never make it to the floor of the House or Senate. Unfortunately, there were not enough contrasting Senate floor votes to develop a voting record that provided any insight into a legislator’s level of support for small business issues.

  • Second Alert

    Second Alert

    SECOND ALERT – HB0079, Recall of elected officials-commission run municipalities, overwhelmingly passed Introduction last Wednesday (Feb 10, 2016) with 44 Aye/Yes votes, 8 Nay/No votes, and 8 Excused. Wyoming Citizens need to understand how crucial it is to kill this bill and act on it THIS WEEKEND! As usual, there is a lot of in-depth info behind the bill and it is challenging to encapsulate it in a short summary. This is our best attempt to do just that – by giving you the short story as well as the longer story for those who prefer to know the necessary details. Whether you choose to read the short story, the long story, or both – please be sure to read page 4 on how to proactively move forward to KILL HB0079. AT A GLANCE - NEED TO KNOW INFO ABOUT HB0079 The bill wants to eliminate the ONLY recall law that exists in the state of Wyoming. That law is §15-4-110. The recall law likely EFFECTS OVER 79,000 WYOMING CITIZENS who reside in Wyoming Charter Cities and Towns – namely Gillette, Green River, Jackson, Cody, Douglas, Powell and Afton Eliminating the recall law indirectly effects ALL Wyoming Citizens HB0079 likely violates Article 3, Section 27 of our WY State Constitution (Special and local laws prohibited) Unless the bill sponsors have the conviction and courage to pull this bill, it is isn’t likely to be killed in committee because 3 of the sponsors serve on the (Corporations) committee who will vote on it If HB0079 passes to the Senate, recall in WY will likely end for an unknown and extended amount of time The Short Story What we have heard: The bills primary sponsor, Tyler Lindholm (R) (House District 1, Crook/Weston County) originally wanted to offer a resolution for a WY State Constitutional Amendment to create recall capability for citizens for every level of government.
