Three gun zealot bills pass into law

April 10, 2021

HB 116, the Governor signed it into law. Previously, you didn’t even need a permit to carry loaded guns if you live in Wyoming. This bill allows anyone to carry guns from any state with no permit required. The NRA likes it because there will be no “government red tape or delays”. Gun safety is not even considered. 👎dislike
HB 236, the Governor signed it into law. It eliminates the freedom of private businesses to choose not to do business with gun companies. 👎dislike
SF 155, the Governor signed it into law. It prevents any Government entity from closing gun stores or manufacturers during an emergency. Once again, public safety takes a back seat to gun sales. 👎dislike
