HB 154 Wyoming House · 2022 Regular Session

Religious Freedom Restoration Act.

HB 154, the Wyoming Religious Freedom Restoration Act, would protect individuals from government actions that burden their religious practices or moral conscience. It defines a "burden" as government actions (like withholding benefits, imposing penalties, or excluding from programs) that restrict religious exercise or moral conscience, and requires government to prove such a burden is necessary for a compelling interest and the least restrictive option. Individuals affected by such government actions could seek court relief for violations. The bill explicitly states it does not override laws protecting public safety or health.
