Grace Smith Medical Freedom Act.
The Grace Smith Medical Freedom Act requires Wyoming health officials to grant waivers for K-12 students to skip school immunization requirements and mask mandates upon written request by a parent, guardian, or authorized adult. For immunizations, waivers must be approved within seven business days for religious or medical reasons (consistent with existing law), while mask mandate waivers must be granted within the same timeframe for any written request. The law applies to all public and private K-12 schools in Wyoming and becomes effective immediately upon enactment.
