7. This is a resolution, not proposed legislation.

It is not a bill that, if passed by both houses of the Wyoming legislature and signed by the governor, would become Wyoming law.

It has as much legal effect as a resolution in support of motherhood, or displaying the American flag, or wishing a football team well.

SJ0004 - Phasing out new electric vehicle sales by 2035.

{snip}

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MEMBERS OF THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WYOMING:



Section 1. That the legislature encourages and expresses as a goal that the sale of new electric vehicles in the state of Wyoming be phased out by 2035.



Section 2. That the legislature encourages Wyoming's industries and citizens to limit the sale and purchase of new electric vehicles in Wyoming with a goal of phasing out the sale of new electric vehicles in Wyoming by 2035.



Section 3. That the Secretary of State of Wyoming transmit copies of this resolution to the President of the United States, each member of Wyoming's congressional delegation, the President of the United States Senate, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, the governor of Wyoming and the governor of California.
