Two ballot propositions, Constitutional Amendment A and B

Two ballot propositions appear on the 2022 General Election Ballot.

Constitutional Amendment A:

The Wyoming Constitution allows the state to invest state funds in equities such as the stock of corporations, but does not allow the funds of counties, cities and other political subdivisions to be invested in equities. The adoption of this amendment would allow the funds of counties, cities and other political subdivisions to be invested in equities to the extent and in the manner the legislature may allow by law. Any law authorizing the investment of specified political subdivision funds in equities would require a two-thirds vote of both houses of the legislature.

Constitutional Amendment B:

Currently, the Wyoming Constitution requires Wyoming Supreme Court Justices and District Court Judges to retire upon reaching the age of seventy (70). This amendment increases the mandatory retirement age of Supreme Court Justices and District Court Judges from age seventy (70) to age seventy-five (75).
