CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) Wyoming lawmakers plan to meet for a day in January before postponing the remainder of their 2021 legislative session until February or March because of the coronavirus.
An eight-week session was scheduled to begin Jan. 12. Legislators still plan to swear in new members, hear Gov. Mark Gordon’s state of the state address and take care of other routine business in an online video conference session that day but will then adjourn.
In late January, they plan to evaluate trends with the coronavirus in Wyoming and decide whether to hold the rest of the session virtually starting in early February or in person in Cheyenne starting in early March, the Wyoming Tribune Eagle reported.

CHEYENNE After state lawmakers decided last month to delay most of the 2021 general session beyond January due to COVID-19 concerns, plans for the 66th Wyoming Legislature are still up in the air, with a couple main options being considered by legislative leadership.
Lawmakers on the Management Council, which includes chamber leaders from both parties, decided during a meeting last month to postpone the session, as legislative staff raised concerns about the challenging logistics of holding a standard, in-person session starting in January.
A few aspects required by the Wyoming Constitution, such as the swearing in of new lawmakers, the adoption of rules and the delivery of an address from Gov. Mark Gordon, will carry on as planned Jan. 12, with lawmakers planning to convene virtually for those events.
