Protection of military equipment.

This Wyoming bill (SF 26) establishes legal protections for individuals defending military equipment. It allows state security officers (military department employees securing assets), Wyoming National Guard members on active duty, and military personnel to use reasonable force - including deadly force - as a defense when protecting military equipment during official duties. The bill also grants immunity from civil or criminal liability for these individuals acting within their duties, provided actions aren’t "palpably illegal, excessively violent, or malicious." It becomes effective July 1, 2025.
