State Revenues

Proposed taxes on items ranging from personal income to highway mileage have died in the 2021 Wyoming Legislature.

House leaders killed both bills on Monday by not bringing them up for first reading by the end of the day.

The vote against House Bill 133 on Tuesday was 32-28 on the third and final reading.

The fiscal note attached to the bill estimates taxing legal cannabis would raise about $49.5 million per year for state coffers.

House Bill 186 and Senate File 3 appear to be directly at odds on the subject of automated traffic enforcement.

The state legislature is scheduled to reconvene in Cheyenne on March 1 for roughly a month-long general session.

The extra fees would be used to pay for a transportation computer system.

So what do you think? Is it time to legalize weed in Wyoming?

In at least one recent case, her office had to decline a case in which a person allegedly had stolen over $30,000 worth of items.

Is this a good idea?
