HB 248 Wyoming House · 2025 Regular Session

School foundation program interim budget authority.

HB 248 prohibits Wyoming's governor from authorizing increases to legislative appropriations from the public school foundation program account, except to ensure sufficient funds are available to cover the foundation program as defined by state law for each school district. This bill directly affects the governor's budget authority and school districts relying on foundation program funding. The key mechanism is a new restriction on executive actions regarding school funding adjustments, with the exception only allowing increases necessary to maintain the program's full funding level. The bill takes effect immediately upon becoming law.
