HB 40 Wyoming House · 2022 Regular Session

Judges-housing allowance.

HB 40 would have allowed Wyoming judges and justices to receive housing assistance if they reside in counties where housing costs significantly exceed the statewide average. The bill directed the Wyoming Supreme Court to create rules for awarding this assistance, subject to constitutional and legal limits on salary changes. It was intended to take effect July 1, 2022. However, the bill failed to pass during the 2022 legislative session, with a 37-23 vote against introduction on February 15, 2022.
