Revisor's bill.
This bill (HB 137) is a technical correction to Wyoming's statutes, fixing minor errors, outdated references, and inconsistencies in existing law.

The bill affects numerous statutes related to state budgeting, school funding, and information technology. It has no direct impact on citizens or programs, as it solely ensures legal language aligns with current practice.

MODERATE
This bill updates Wyoming statutes to correct errors from previous legislation and adjusts revenue distribution thresholds for school funding across multiple fiscal years. The changes modify how excess revenue is allocated to school accounts, adding new provisions for fiscal years 2023-2026 while updating amounts for earlier years. These technical corrections ensure statutory references remain accurate and funding formulas reflect current budget realities.
