2025 WCCA Legislative Conference

hollingsheadforcom

On January 22nd-24th, I attended the Wyoming County Commissioners Association (WCCA) Legislative Conference in Cheyenne, which was held at the Blue Federal Credit Union Headquarters building.  


The WCCA, through its Executive Director, Jerimiah Reiman, represents the state's county commissioners before the Wyoming State Legislature. It collaborates with the Wyoming governor's office and other state agencies on local government issues and provides outreach and guidance to county leaders across the state.


They also conduct extensive training for newly elected county commissioners to ensure we are well-prepared to represent our counties. The training included information on county revenue sources, responsibilities regarding road and bridge systems, employment issues, open meeting laws, governmental ethics, and state audit requirements.  


The legislative portion of the conference consisted of reviewing each of the proposed bills that relate specifically to counties across the state.


The membership of the WCCA, which represents each of the state's 23 counties, votes on how Director Reiman will lobby the legislature on behalf of county commissioners for each bill.  Each WCCA member has a vote in the process, but the organization will only take action to support or oppose a bill if 70% of the members agree. If not, no action will be taken either way.


The conference was quite an eye-opening experience, both in training and in experiencing the legislative process in action. We also had the opportunity to tour the state capitol and hear from Governor Gordon, Secretary of State Chuck Grey, and several other state leadership members.
