Carbon County’s two state representatives will hold a public meeting in Rawlins to discuss the recent legislative session.
During the March 17th Rawlins City Council meeting, House District 15 Representative Pam Thayer announced that she and District 47 Representative Bob Davis will meet with constituents next week at the Carbon County Higher Education Center. Thayer said they’ll update the public on actions taken during the 2026 legislative session.
Representative Thayer co‑sponsored six bills in 2026, including Senate Joint Resolution Nine, which asked the United States Congress to ensure that Wyoming’s public spaces continue to be used for the benefit of the state. The measure was signed into law by Governor Mark Gordon.
Representative Davis sponsored three bills and co‑sponsored another 22 during the 2026 session. Among them was House Bill 29, which would have required the Wyoming Game and Fish Department to clarify requirements for nonresident trapping licenses. The House of Representatives did not take House Bill 29 up for consideration.
Both Carbon County representatives voted to move House Bill 19 to the Wyoming Senate. House Bill 19 would have placed the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals’ ruling legalizing corner crossing into state law, but the Senate defeated the measure. Similarly, Representatives Thayer and Davis voted in support of House Bill 32, which allows all law enforcement officers in Wyoming to take commercial truckers off the road for failing to meet federal minimum English‑proficiency standards. Governor Gordon signed that measure into law early last month.
Representatives Pam Thayer and Bob Davis will hold a public meeting to discuss their work in Cheyenne on Tuesday, April 14th at the Carbon County Higher Education Center in Rawlins, beginning at 6:00 p.m.
