The equality state not equity state act.
Wyoming's SF 130 prohibits all state and local government entities - including state agencies, universities, counties, cities, and school districts - from implementing any diversity, equity, or inclusion (DEI) program, activity, or policy. The bill defines "diversity, equity or inclusion" as efforts promoting differential treatment based on race, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, or other protected characteristics. Governmental entities must eliminate such programs and adopt necessary rules by July 1, 2024, to comply with the law. This bill directly affects all public institutions receiving state funding or operating under state authority.
