WyomingText addresses when the state task force ends
The enrolled text addresses the task force’s end date and $50,000 for its legislative members, but missing formatting leaves key dates unclear.
What it does
The text pairs April 1, 2026, with June 30, 2028, as the task force’s end date. The missing formatting makes it unclear which date the law sets.
The text provides $50,000 for legislative members’ pay, mileage, and daily allowances. Any unused, uncommitted money is to go to the legislative stabilization reserve account, though the dates for these provisions are unclear.
Argument forSending unused money to the legislative reserve could keep it available for future state needs.
Argument againstIf April 1, 2026 is the task force’s end date, members could have less time to do their work.
More detail
The enrolled text lists April 1, 2026, as a task force end date. This concerns the task force established under 2023 Wyoming Session Laws, Chapter 187. The two dates shown are April 1, 2026, and June 30, 2028; the text does not make clear which applies.
The text provides a $50,000 general fund appropriation to the Legislative Service Office for the task force. The appropriation is for legislative members of the task force. The money is only for legislative members’ salary, mileage, and daily allowances; it cannot be transferred or spent for another purpose. The text pairs June 30, 2026, with June 30, 2028, for the funding period and the deposit of remaining money; it does not make clear which date applies.
