WY: Contact the Wyoming Senate – Gun Rights Bills Hang in The Balance!
Please Contact the Wyoming Senate Now – Historic Gun Bills Hang in the Balance!
Over the prior four Wyoming Legislative Sessions, GOA worked to pass some of America’s best Second Amendment legislation, and we are just a few steps away from more major Gun Rights Wins this year!
Three GOA-backed pro-Second Amendment bills have passed the full Wyoming House and could pass the Senate this week. A fourth bill passed the Wyoming Senate and could pass the House this week.
These bills will lower the required age to 18 for concealed carry permits (HB096) and increase protections for citizens against Red Flag Gun Confiscation Orders (HB0098).
Additionally, two nearly identical bills, HB0130 and SF0101, add a civil process to Wyoming’s existing Second Amendment Protection laws that GOA helped pass in 2022. The 2022 law made the enforcement of unconstitutional federal gun control a crime under Wyoming criminal statutes.
If HB0130 and/or SF0101 pass, citizens will have a clear path to take agencies to Civil Court for damages, and this will serve as a major deterrent to local cooperation with federal gun control because of the potential impact on an agency’s budget!
A weakening amendment was added to HB0130 on the Senate Floor, but we will work to remove that Amendment on the third and final Senate Floor Vote. Furthermore, SF0101 remains strong as it moves through what we expect to be a friendly House.
Together, these bills would firmly establish Wyoming as an example for the entire Country when it comes to Second Amendment Rights.
Our current challenge is in the Wyoming Senate, so we are asking you to click the take action button above. Please ask your Senators to support these Second Amendment expansions without any weakening Amendments.
Together, by the end of this Legislative Session, we can make Wyoming one of America’s best states for Second Amendment Rights if we pass GOA’s 2026 Wyoming Legislative Agenda.
Stay tuned for more information very soon.
P.S. Please immediately contact the Wyoming Senate and ask them to support House Bills 96 and 98 as written and 130 (with removal of the weakening Amendment).
