Constitutional Amendment to Protect Citizen Information

Protecting citizen data from the prying eyes of the government, hackers, and neighbors is the rally cry of everyone from Rand Paul to the Wyoming Legislature.

 Wyoming’s Task Force on Digital Information will recommend whether the Legislature should move forward with its constitutional amendment again in 2016.

In 2015, the constitutional amendment ran into hurdles when legislators realized that protecting privacy might make a mess of open records.

To head this disaster off at the pass, some press types recommended a right to know addition to the constitutional amendment.
