Converse County School District #2 Announcements
The 61st Session of the Wyoming Legislature Begins Soon

The 2010 Budget Session of the 61st Wyoming Legislature will begin on February 8, 2010 and is scheduled to adjourn on March 5th.  The budget session is every other year and is scheduled to last 20 days. Last year’s legislative session was the general session and that session lasted 40 days. We anticipate that there will not be any major educational bills this year. The state legislators approved a new school funding model starting with the 2006-07 school year. The funding model is scheduled to be recalibrated after five years. The legislators have left the funding model basically untouched since they approved the model. The funding model will be recalibrated during the 2011 legislative session. During recalibration, there could be major changes to the current model. There are always many issues to watch and track during a general session that not only affect our schools, but affect us personally or professionally. The best way to track the progress of legislation is through the internet or the news media. Another way is to contact your elected officials. 
 
Our elected Legislators representing our school district are Senator Jim Anderson and Representative Richard Cannady. If you are interested in contacting Senator Anderson and Representative Cannady on any bill during the legislative session, there are a number of ways for you to do so. You may call the Senate Receptionist at 307-777-7711 or the House receptionist at 307-777-7852. Written mail may be directed to the Wyoming State House or Wyoming State Senate, Capitol Building, Cheyenne, WY 82002. Faxes can be sent to designated legislators at 307-777-5466. If you want to recommend a vote for or against a bill, call the Voter Hotline at 1-866-996-8683. You cannot leave a message, just a yes or no vote. You may also contact Senator Anderson by email at jamesda1@msn.com or Representative Cannady at gcbiz1@aol.com.   Senator Anderson’s and Representative Cannady’s email address has the number “one” in their address before @. Senator Anderson and Representative Cannady welcome your input on all issues facing the State of Wyoming.
