Wyoming enacted SEA 8, requiring parental opt-in before instruction on sexual orientation or gender identity
On March 6, 2024, Wyoming Senate Enrolled Act 8 (Senate File 9) took effect after Gov. Mark Gordon allowed it to become law without his signature. The law requires public schools to obtain written or electronic parental permission at least one day in advance before a student may participate in any class or training that addresses sexual orientation or gender identity — a restriction not applied to other subjects.
