Summary

The joint resolution would change Article 7, Section 1 of the Wyoming Constitution so that, while the formula used to fund public schools can still be judged for constitutional compliance, the actual amount appropriated by the legislature cannot be challenged in court. It affects public schools, the state legislature, and the judiciary by limiting judicial oversight of school budget decisions. The change would only take effect if approved by a two‑thirds legislative vote and then ratified by Wyoming voters.
