Wyoming educational religious freedom act.
HB 335, the Wyoming Educational Religious Freedom Act, prohibits public schools and state-funded educational programs from implementing curricula or practices that mandate specific beliefs about identity, power structures, or group identity. It bans activities like required cultural competency training, mandatory identity exploration, equity-based grading, or prescribed discussions of privilege. The bill requires schools to annually review all instructional materials - including digital tools and teacher resources - for "sectarian content" and establishes a complaint process for violations. It directly affects all public schools, districts, and state-funded educational programs in Wyoming, while explicitly allowing academic instruction about historical concepts and voluntary student participation in discussions. The bill does not restrict references to diverse viewpoints or historical/scientific teaching.
