The proposed bill establishes a new section in Wyoming law that prohibits discrimination based on an individual's COVID-19 vaccination status, face covering usage, or medical testing status. Specifically, it forbids any person from denying services, goods, or privileges to others based on these criteria. Additionally, it prohibits the publication or advertisement of requirements related to face coverings, vaccinations, or medical testing as conditions for accessing public services or facilities. The bill provides definitions for key terms such as "COVID-19," "face covering," "vaccination," and "vaccine."
Furthermore, the bill allows individuals who believe they have been wronged by such discriminatory practices to file a civil action and seek a penalty of up to $5,000. The act is set to take effect immediately upon the completion of all necessary legislative procedures.
