Return Schools as Gun-Free Zones
In 2025, the Wyoming Legislators passed HB 0172, repealing gun-free zones in Wyoming. This allows for anyone 18+ to carry a concealed weapon in Wyoming schools. Governor Gordon allowed this to pass into law without his signature, which demonstrates that he doesn't support the legislation either.
The Wyoming State Legislators MUST repeal this law in the next legislative session and return gun policies for staff to school districts directly.

Why is this important?
Wyoming has a long history of responsible regulation of firearms. Sensitive areas such as schools, college campuses, and government buildings should not have their rights to regulate firearms removed.
- Each school district already has the right to create their own concealed carry program for staff. A few school districts have implemented successful programs while many have decided not to.
- College and University Board of Trustees already can create their own concealed carry programs. The University of Wyoming Board of Trustees voted against allowing concealed carry on campus in November of 2024.
