Notes

HB166 is before the Senate, and if passed will give Wyoming families TRUE education freedom with Education Savings Accounts (ESAs).

ESAs are like a golden ticket for every Wyoming family, giving them full control over their children’s schooling.

They work like debit cards for each individual student. This means families can use those funds for services like tutoring, online courses, transportation, or even therapy for children with special needs.
