Wyoming governor vetoes bill to allow concealed carry in public schools, meetings
CHEYENNE, Wyo. — Wyoming Republican Gov. Mark Gordon has vetoed a bill that would have allowed people to carry concealed guns in public schools and government meetings.
In his veto letter Friday night, Gordon said he had concerns the bill would exceed the separation of powers provision in the state constitution since any policy, further regulation or clarification of the law could only be implemented by the Legislature.
It would have required each state facility, including the University of Wyoming, the Wyoming State Hospital and the Wyoming Boys’ School, to seek legislative approval to restrict carrying firearms.
Under the bill, open carry of firearms would still have been prohibited in schools and government meetings, and K-12 students would not have been allowed to have guns at school.
