WY: TELL THE GOVERNOR – Support Second Amendment Protections!

By Rebecca Jones


Ask the Governor to Uphold Second Amendment Protections

Thank you so much for taking action on our alerts!
Our Legislative victories, like passing the Repeal of Gun-Free Zones just last week, prove that Legislators are listening to you in Cheyenne.
Now we need you to contact the Governor once again!
Before I tell you about the latest critical issue, please let me explain where we’ve been in order to explain what we need to do now. 
In 2022, GOA fought to pass Wyoming Statute 9-14-203 which imposed a Criminal Penalty of imprisonment for not more than one (1) year, and a fine of not more than two thousand dollars ($2,000.00), for state or local officials who infringe on your Second Amendment Rights.
No law is perfect, but many Second Amendment experts believe this law is the nation’s strongest Criminal Second Amendment Protection Act (SAPA) because it is a serious deterrent for officials who would infringe on your Rights!
Since the passage of the 2022 law, GOA has worked in Cheyenne every year to add a process allowing citizens to take Civil Action against a governmental entity that infringes on our Second Amendment Rights.
Sadly, some dishonest groups and legislators have played political games with these facts and misrepresented these issues
