House

Wyoming Statute: Title 28, Chapter 4
Responsibilities and Authority:

The Wyoming House of Representative is the lower house in the state legislature, and is composed of sixty-two members; one of which is the Speaker of the House, who maintains order during House meetings. They have a relatively short term, and function similarly to the U.S. House of Representatives.

Experience and Skills:

House members must be willing to work with a vast amount of other Representatives, and compromise on issues of the state with the upper house. The House must be willing to discuss these issues in a concise manner, so that they can develop a well-thought out solution.

Impact on Citizens:

The House of Representatives is one of two houses responsible for making state laws. These laws can majorly affect the well-being of the state, for better or for worse. So, it is imperative that competent citizens are elected, who can properly represent their district.
