LEGISLATIVE SESSION: 2025 General Session
Every year, the Wyoming Legislature meets to introduce, discuss, and pass legislation. In odd years, like 2025, the Legislature will convene in a General Session. This means that bills only need a simple majority to be introduced and there will be a supplemental budget, which will take less time than a biennial budget as in a Budget Session.
The General Session is began on January 14, 2025 and adjourned on March 6, 2025.

At the Equality State Policy Center, we are actively at the Capitol—testifying, lobbying, and advocating on bills related to transparent government and fair elections. Our mission is to ensure Wyoming citizens are informed and empowered to make their voices heard and impact our state's future. View the ESPC bills below that are still in play.

Support: Supporting this resolution aligns with our commitment to fair elections by ensuring that the voices of everyday citizens are not drowned out by unlimited spending from wealthy special interests. The rising costs of campaigns, reflected in ESPC’s recent campaign finance reports, make it harder for ordinary people to run for office and for voters to have an equal say with their dollar power. Agree? 
Concerns: Masquerading as a transparency bill, this bill shoves together many components of other bills we oppose. Despite the lack of evidence that we have an issue with voter fraud in our state, this bill imposes unnecessary barriers and opens our processes up to errors.
ESPC Concerns: This bill creates a $2 million fund for runoff election costs and increases candidate spending. We agree with the intent of this bill, however, we believe in saving money and increasing voter turnout. We think a bill like this should be implemented in a single election, with the top two vote-getters facing off in the General.

Concerns: Hand-counting is expensive, people-intensive, time-intensive, and inaccurate. The Equality State Policy Center has laid out the reasons to keep our ballot machines, which are accurate, timely, and well-tested.
