Rep. Jim Roscoe

Maddy summaryHB 144 establishes a $40 million grant program to fund active transportation and recreation projects across Wyoming. The Wyoming Department of Transportation will administer 90% of the funds ($36 million) for projects like bike paths, sidewalks, safe routes to schools, and walkable downtown corridors, while the Department of State Parks will manage 10% ($4 million) for natural surface trails (hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking) and related planning. Applicants must provide a 20% local match and projects must align with specific eligible categories outlined in the bill. The program is funded through June 30, 2024, with unspent funds reverting to the state treasury.

Maddy summaryHB 106 decriminalizes small amounts of marijuana in Wyoming by replacing criminal penalties with civil fines. It eliminates jail time for possessing up to 3 ounces of marijuana in plant form or equivalent amounts in edibles (up to 16 ounces), paraphernalia, or other forms. The bill also removes marijuana possession as a criminal offense but does not legalize recreational use or expand medical access - doctors remain restricted to prescribing only FDA-approved products like dronabinol. This change affects individuals caught with specified small quantities, shifting enforcement from criminal courts to civil penalties. The bill was introduced in 2022 but was not advanced for consideration.
