HJ 7 Wyoming House · 2024 Regular Session

Individual right to privacy-constitutional amendment.

This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to add a right to privacy in Wyoming's state constitution. It would insert Article 1, Section 40 stating: "The right of individual privacy is essential to the well-being of a free society and shall not be infringed." If approved by voters, this would enshrine a privacy right directly affecting all Wyoming residents by limiting government actions that infringe on personal privacy. The proposal is currently in the introduction stage and requires voter approval at the next general election to become part of the state constitution.
