Whether the state of Wyoming gets rid of its gun-free zones is in Gov. Mark Gordon’s hands.

On March 8, the Legislature passed and sent to Mr. Gordon HB 125. The bill’s primary sponsor, state Rep. Jeremy Haroldson, a Republican, said he is cautiously optimistic that Mr. Gordon will sign the bill but that he knows there are no guarantees.
