Wyoming Association of REALTORS® Legislative Meetings

The legislative meetings were held February 17-19 in Cheyenne, WY. Ron Adams, Ray Elser, Devon Viehman, Nancy Clancy and Jocelyn Emery attended. This was a budget session and the House had over 60 budget amendments to review. 26 bills were not heard because they had to finish the budget and ran out of time. A bill to repeal restrictions on state chartered banks, so they are on an even playing field with federal banks, passed the house and is still alive in the senate. A bill currently being considered is SF0075, which tells the EPA/Federal Agencies that Wyoming will not recognize their executive findings in certain instances and authorizes the Attorney General to take whatever actions necessary to challenge the EPA actions.
