Ballot initiative process amendments.
HB 240 amends Wyoming's initiative process to allow voters to approve funding through ballot measures (previously restricted). It requires the legislature to assign these funds in the next legislative session and mandates the Secretary of State to provide governor election voter counts to initiative committees upon request. The bill would take effect in 2024 only if a related constitutional amendment passes in the 2024 election. This procedural change affects initiative committees seeking to gather required data and the legislature’s handling of voter-approved appropriations.
