This joint resolution proposes an amendment to the Wyoming Constitution, specifically Article 1, Section 29, to prohibit foreign adversaries and certain foreign entities from owning property in the state. The amendment introduces a new provision that distinguishes between resident aliens and citizens regarding property rights, stating that while no distinction shall be made in general, foreign adversaries posing a threat to U.S. national security will not be entitled to possess, enjoy, or inherit real property in Wyoming. This includes all interests in real estate, such as surface, subsurface, airspace, and mineral rights.
The resolution mandates that the Secretary of State endorse a statement clarifying that the adoption of this amendment would specifically prevent foreign adversaries from having any rights to real property in Wyoming. This measure aims to enhance the security and safety of the state and its residents by restricting property ownership to those who do not pose a threat to national security.
