Public Utilities Bill Agreed Upon in Wyoming Senate
The Wyoming senate advanced the public utilities substitute bill amid partisan debate over commission composition. Democrats favored a four member panel including governor and secretary of state. Republicans sought alternative configurations. A draft amendment to bar removal of the secretary without the governor’s consent passed only after multiple votes. The measure passed the senate committee of the whole with one amendment and heads toward final passage as the session proceeds.
