Wyoming workers protected from required pronoun use
Beginning July 1, 2025, Wyoming and local governments cannot require employees to use another employee’s preferred pronouns. This ban covers conditions for starting or keeping a job, government contracting, or receiving grants, loans, permits, licenses, or other benefits. It also covers threats of job penalties, exclusion, sanctions, or punishment. People harmed by violations occurring on or after that date can sue in a court with jurisdiction. They can sue the state or local government and employees acting officially to stop violations or have them declared unlawful. The law does not specify money awards.
