The bill establishes a new provision, W.S. 9-1-225, which mandates that executive orders issued by a governor will expire thirty days after that governor leaves office, unless a newly elected governor issues an order to extend it. This means that no executive order will remain in effect for more than thirty days following the departure of the issuing governor, ensuring a clear timeline for the validity of such orders.
Additionally, the bill specifies that this new regulation will apply to any executive orders currently in effect or those issued on or after July 1, 2025, with the act itself taking effect on the same date. This legislative change aims to enhance the accountability and temporary nature of executive orders in the state of Wyoming.
