Careys View of Wyoming Legislation in Cheyenne
Carey reports in Cheyenne on the final week of the legislature with about 300 bills on file. A new apportionment bill shifts representation between Park and Big Horn counties, while a county organization bill aims to place governor appointments on county offices. The judicial bill, backed by Taylor, would grant governor appointment power over judges, but Sheridan legislators oppose allowing such amendments.
