LWV Wyoming has been a respected organization in our state for decades. It engages in rigorous study and discussion of public policy issues. Members actively participate in the political process while maintaining a nonpartisan position to promote fair policies.

Wyoming has five local leagues: Campbell County, Casper, Cheyenne, Fremont County, Laramie, and at-large members in Teton County. Together they comprise the state league, LWVWY. 

Wyoming 2025 Legislature

The 2025 legislative session starts on January 14. Bill drafts are being posted from now until late January. All the current bills and their reference numbers, titles, sponsors, and tracked activity posted on the legislative website (wyoleg.org/Legislation/2025).

Bill Tracking

The table below is produced by a bill-tracking app. Members of the LWVWY legislative committee used key words to extract bills addressing one of the three League priorities selected prior to the 2025 legislative session.

Note: This spreadsheet contains many more than 4 columns. You can view more columns with more bill information by click-dragging the column separators and pulling them to the left. You can also view the full billtrack50 page here.

Legislative Advocacy of Our Partners

However, posting information from a coalition of partners does not imply LWVWY endorsement of that organization’s position
