Discrimination prohibition-amendments.

HB 280 amends Wyoming's anti-discrimination law to establish specific criminal penalties for intentionally causing bodily injury or property damage based on a person's race, color, sex, creed, or national origin. It classifies offenses as misdemeanors (up to 6 months in jail and $750 fine) for lesser harm like minor bodily injury or property damage under $1,000, or felonies (up to 10 years in prison and $10,000 fine) for serious injury or property damage of $1,000 or more. The law directly affects individuals who commit hate-motivated violence or vandalism and applies to anyone acting with the intent to intimidate or harass a victim due to their protected class. It becomes effective immediately upon enactment.
