AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE UNION FOUNDATION’S 2017 Ratings of Wyoming

Dear Fellow Conservative,

The American Conservative Union Foundation is proud to present our ratings of the 2017 meeting of the Wyoming Legislature. Like our Congressional Ratings, which date back 46 years, these ratings are meant to reflect how elected officials view the role of government in an individual’s life. We begin with our philosophy (conservatism is the political philosophy that sovereignty resides in the person) and then apply our understanding of government (its essential role is to defend life, liberty and property).

Because our ratings are designed to educate the public about how consistently their elected officials adhere to conservatism, we carefully examine the entire docket of legislation introduced in each state every year. We select the most meaningful bills and publish the results after the dust has settled. The ACU Foundation is the only organization to score over 8,000 elected officials each year, including lawmakers from all 50 states and Congress.

The 2016 election dramatically impacted the political landscape of not only Washington but state legislative chambers all across the country. Republicans now have control of both legislative chambers in 32 states, more than double the number they controlled in 2010. With these victories comes an ability to implement policies that restore individual liberty and return us to a limited form of government run by and for “We the People.”

It is our hope that these ratings will serve as a guide showing who can be relied on to fight for conservative principles and restore the role of government to what our nation’s founding fathers envisioned.

Sincerely,

Matt SchlappChairmanAmerican Conservative Union

SELECTING THE VOTES

ACU researched and selected a range of bills before the Wyoming Legislature that determine a member’s adherence to conservative principles. We selected bills that focus on Ronald Reagan’s philosophy of the “three-legged stool”: 1) fiscal and economic: taxes, budgets, regulation, spending, healthcare, and property; 2) social and cultural: 2nd amendment, religion, life, welfare, and education; and 3) government integrity: voting, individual liberty, privacy, and transparency. This wide range of issues are designed to give citizens an accurate assessment that conveys which of Wyoming’s elected leaders best defend the principles of a free society: Life, Liberty and Property.

1. SF 92 Streamlining Construction Regulations. This bill gives local governments control over new construction projects, building remolding, and above ground flammable fuel storage tank construction so that plans do not have to be submitted to the state Fire Marshall. ACU supports reducing the regulatory burden on these projects and supported this bill. The Senate passed the bill on January 23, 2017 by a vote of 30-0.

2. SF 48 Farm Loan Program Expansion. This bill increases from $800,000 to $1 million the amount that can be lent to any one person under the farm loan program and increases the cap on a loan from ten percent to twenty percent of the total authorized loan amount. ACU opposes increasing the taxpayer risk for a farm program that is in addition to federal farm subsidy and crop insurance subsidy programs and opposed this bill. The Senate passed the bill on January 26, 2017 by a vote of 29-0.

3. SF 118 Homemade Food Regulations. This bill allows people with homemade food to sell the food on the premises where the food is produced. Signs must state that the food is homemade and is not government inspected. Expanding entrepreneurship promotes economic growth, which leads to greater family prosperity, as illustrated by the ACU Foundation’s Family Prosperity Index. ACU supports common-sense regulatory reform and supported this bill. The senate passed the bill on February 1, 2017 by a vote of 30-0.

4. SF 150 Free Contraceptive Program. This bill sets up a program within the Department of Health to give free “long-acting reversible contraceptives,” such as injections, intrauterine devices, and implants, to women who would “likely” be qualified for prenatal or delivery coverage under Medicaid. The government will solicit funds from private sources to pay for the program. ACU believes programs that are privately funded do not need government to administer them and opposed this bill. The Senate passed the bill on February 2, 2017 by a vote of 24-6.

5. SJ 9 Authority Over Government Spending. This resolution states that the legislature should determine the amount of government spending and that the courts shall be prohibited from requiring funding beyond the law or imposing a tax or tax increase to fund programs.

6. SF 94 Franchise Employee Regulations. This bill establishes that, when applying labor law, neither a franchise owner, nor that owner’s employees, are employees of the franchisor. When entrepreneurship is suppressed, the resulting decline in economic growth leads to a reduction in family prosperity, as illustrated by the ACU Foundation’s Family Prosperity Index. ACU supports this common sense application of labor law in response to the National Labor Relations Board rule overturning decades of precedent in this area and supported this bill. The Senate passed the bill on February 3, 2017 by a vote of 30-0.

7. SF 157 Teacher Employment Flexibility.

10. HB 61 Property Rights. This bill makes it illegal to enter private property to collect antlers or horns without the permission of the property owner. ACU supports strengthening property rights and the ACU Foundation’s Center for 21st Century Property Rights engages heavily on this issue, therefore ACU supported this bill. The Senate passed the bill on February 24, 2017 by a vote of 28-1.
