Summary

The Wyoming House recorded roll‑call votes on several Senate files on the afternoon floor calendar, approving bills on overdose reporting immunity, teacher certification, local government investments and wildfire management.

The Wyoming House recorded final roll‑call actions on multiple Senate files during the afternoon session. Key outcomes and vote tallies from the transcript follow.

Senate File 74 — Immunity for drug overdose reporting Senate File 74, a measure relating to controlled substances and civil or criminal immunity for certain overdose reporting, was read three times and put to a roll call. The House returned an affirmative vote and passed the bill. Roll‑call summary on the floor: 58 aye, 4 excused. The bill passed the House and will proceed toward enrollment.

Senate File 86 — Alternative teaching certificate After extended floor debate and consideration of third‑reading amendments, the House approved Senate File 86 on third reading. Final roll call: 32 aye, 28 no, 2 excused. Debate focused on whether the bill would allow non‑accredited alternative certification programs and concerns raised about costs to applicants and possible out‑of‑state certificate providers. (For a fuller narrative of that debate, see the separate article on SF86.)

Senate File 145 — Local government investments and equities Senate File 145, a bill allowing or clarifying certain local government investment authority including equity funds in limited circumstances, was put to a roll call that required a two‑thirds threshold. The final roll call reported 54 aye, 6 no, 2 excused. Supporters said expanded investment tools would help local governments steward long‑term capital projects; opponents raised questions about taxpayer protections and the appearance of having large local reserves.

Senate File 152 — Wildfire management and state forester duties Senate File 152, including amendments adopted on the floor, passed the House on third reading by a roll call of 46 aye, 14 no, 2 excused. The floor debate produced multiple amendments (including the removal of a proposed standalone task force and the addition of mitigation loans, targeted grants and aviation funding for wildfire response). The House adopted the package and passed the bill.
