The Wyoming House has voted 50-10 overwhelmingly in favor of HB 172, “Repeal Gun Free Zones and Preemption Amendments.” Now headed to the Senate, HB 172 will potentially allow concealed carry in schools, government buildings and meetings, including college and university sporting events not serving alcohol. With the history of the bill dating back 12 years, this effort marks the 10th endeavor to get it through the Wyoming Legislature and passed into law. A similar measure, passed by the House in 2024, was killed in a Senate committee but resurrected by former Sheridan Senator Dave Kinskey.
