Maddy summaryWyoming's SF 146 requires state departments to study the potential costs and benefits of expanding Medicaid, directly affecting state agencies (insurance, family services, health, and library) and future policy decisions. The study must analyze enrollment demographics, provider reimbursement impacts (including hospitals and physicians), administrative costs, income cliffs in welfare programs, and compare findings to previous studies and Oregon's Medicaid expansion experience. It mandates specific cost breakdowns showing federal vs. state expenses under different federal match scenarios (90% vs. 50% for benefits) and includes health status impact analysis based on academic literature. The bill does not expand Medicaid but provides a framework for evaluating such a change.
Maddy summaryWyoming's SF 148 creates a legal framework allowing the state to temporarily seize and operate federal facilities like national parks or wildlife refuges if the federal government cannot do so effectively. During seizure, the governor must maintain public access, protect natural/cultural resources, and allow concessionaires to continue operating, while charging fees to cover costs. The state must return the facility to federal control once the federal government can manage it, and repay any fees collected or profits earned. The bill also establishes a $1 million contingency fund for planning and exempts certain operational plans from public records disclosure.
