This bill amends existing laws regarding nonprofit corporations in Wyoming to allow members to participate in annual, regular, and special meetings remotely. Specifically, it introduces provisions that permit members to engage in meetings through any means of communication that enables simultaneous interaction among all participants, thereby considering those who join remotely as present in person. The amendments apply unless the corporation's articles or bylaws specify otherwise.
The bill also clarifies that it will take effect on July 1, 2026, and ensures that any membership meetings conducted prior to this date, where members participated through similar communication methods, are not deemed improper. This legislative change aims to modernize the operational framework of nonprofit corporations, enhancing accessibility and participation for their members.
