Wyoming
The Wyoming Public Meetings Act does not touch on a right to comment at a public meeting except at Wyo. Stat. § 16-4-406. That statute allows a governing body to prevent willful disruption of a meeting that prevents the orderly conduct of the meeting by removal of the offending parties or recess of the meeting.
While there is no law governing this issue, most if not all entities provide for public comment during their meetings.
Wyoming
The Public Meetings Act is silent as to this issue. Wyoming has no case law regarding whether public meetings are public forums in which the right to speak may not be abridged based upon the content of the speech or the viewpoint of the speaker.
