This week Governor Gordon took action on the remaining bills that had been sent to his desk during the 2025 legislative session. The Governor joined Senate Majority Leader Tara Nethercott, Wyoming Business Alliance President Renny MacKay and City of Cheyenne Planning and Development Director Charles Bloom to sign Senate File 171. The bill eliminates restrictive housing construction regulations and is a small step towards reducing costs of development and increasing access to workforce housing.
A complete list of the bills Governor Gordon signed, vetoed and allowed to pass into law without his signature may be found on the Bills page of the Governor's website.

In a public ceremony that included members of state, county, and municipal law enforcement, the Governor signed a letter vetoing Senate File 196 - Second Amendment Protection Act - amendments, calling the bill “overkill” that would punish first responders and threaten the cooperative work between Wyoming law enforcement officers and their federal partners.
“This Act takes aim at – and potentially vilifies – law enforcement if, in the process of working to apprehend, prosecute, and detain illegal aliens, drug mules, human traffickers, abusers, and other miscreants, they cooperate with the federal government and a gun is involved. Wyoming can do better,” the Governor wrote.
