Sponsor: Sen. Lummis, Cynthia M. (R-WY)1 cosponsorIntroduced Jul 14, 2025
✆
In plain English
Wyoming allows more flexibility in how it invests its permanent school fund by letting the state use earnings from investments, not just interest payments. Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) introduced the bill with one Republican cosponsor. Congress originally created the fund by granting federal lands to Wyoming when it became a state, with proceeds from land sales going to support public schools.
