Wyoming State Legislature |
The Wyoming House of Representatives is the lower house of the Wyoming State Legislature. There are 62 Representatives in the House, representing an equal number of single-member constituent districts across the state, each with a population of at least 9,000. The House convenes at the Wyoming State Capitol in Cheyenne.
Members of the House serve two year terms without term limits.[2] Term limits were declared unconstitutional by the Wyoming Supreme Court in 2004, overturning a decade-old law that had restricted Representatives to six terms (twelve years).[3]
The current Speaker of the House is Albert Sommers.
The enacted proposal adds one Senate seat and two House seats to the state legislature.
