Wyoming Constitution
Constitutions comprise the basis of government and specify the rights of citizens. Even though the Wyoming Constitution is longer than the U. S. Constitution, it is subordinate to the U. S. Constitution and must conform to it, as well as to United States laws and treaties.
The Wyoming Constitution, like that of most states, contains five elements: provisions for the organization and operation of government; a “declaration of rights”; the process for amending the document; miscellaneous provisions; and the “schedule.” The Wyoming Constitution contains 21 articles and, unlike the United States Constitution, amendments are not separated from the articles.
