In January, Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon submitted 17 letters to the Joint Appropriations Committee reflecting his budget priorities and requests for 2021-2022. Along with his requests the governor stated, “My priority continues to be to keep ongoing spending as flat as possible and prepare for the coming fiscal storm. Clearly fiscal restraint continues to be in order.”

Typically, the Budget Session lasts 20 legislative days.
