Compare Wyoming’s price levels, category costs, and changes in its regional price deflator.
BLS does not publish a statewide Wyoming CPI or a complete 50-state CPI cohort. The statewide comparisons here use BEA regional price parities and its implicit regional price deflator. They are explicitly labeled and are not CPI.

Wyoming · 2024: 92.7 · Rank #35 of 50, highest first · U.S. benchmark: 100
BEA regional price parity, relative to the overall national price level. The U.S. all-items index equals 100 each year. Measures prices across places within the same year, rather than annual inflation. For all items, 103 means about 3% above the national level. Category benchmarks can differ from 100; compare Wyoming with the published U.S. category value shown. Annual observations use December 31; monthly observations use the first of the month. Lines connect consecutive readings and do not supply values between them. Missing observations break the lines.
The timeline combines the corresponding national fact’s reviewed event catalog, labeled National context, with individually reviewed state milestones. State events use primary sources and distinguish signing, effective and filing dates. Each milestone keeps its source-check date, geographical limits and evidence limits. This curated selection is not a complete history.
Date ranges affect events and actions. Action type, status and official-name search affect government records only. Events remain separate from action counts. An event after the latest observation extends context without creating a new reading.

Executive Order 2026-03: Data Centers the Wyoming Way development framework
Jun 3, 2026 · Issued · Existing-authority framework
Gov. Mark Gordon · Issued
FactVote reviewed summary
Gov. Mark Gordon issued Executive Order 2026-03 on June 3, 2026. Its data-center framework directs executive agencies using existing authority to protect residential and small-business utility customers from incremental costs exclusively associated with data centers and support infrastructure costs being borne by those creating demand. Recommendations were due within 60 days. The order preserves existing law and permitting requirements; it does not approve a project or establish electricity savings.
Effective immediately on June 3, 2026, until modified, amended, rescinded or superseded. Agency recommendations are due within 60 days.
Why this record is included
The fact measures average retail electricity prices across all customer sectors. Allocation of infrastructure costs concerns a component of utility rates; a directive to use existing authority does not itself approve a rate, document savings or establish a change in the statewide average. This relationship does not establish causation. Actions after the measurement period cannot explain its earlier value.
Retained Wyoming evidence context: Average retail electricity price. This record’s connection to the topic does not establish an effect on the measured result.
Wyoming shall protect residential and small-business utility customers from bearing incremental costs exclusively associated with data center development. State agencies shall support policies and practices that ensure new infrastructure investments associated with data centers are appropriately borne by those creating the demand while exploring opportunities for broader public benefits to existing ratepayers.
[…]
Nothing in this Executive Order shall be construed to alter existing statutory authority, permitting requirements, property rights, water rights, local land-use authority, or regulatory obligations established under Wyoming law.

Gov. Mark Gordon · Issued
FactVote reviewed summary
Gov. Mark Gordon issued Executive Order 2021-06 on July 20, 2021. It temporarily exempted transportation and delivery of gasoline, diesel and aviation fuel into and within Wyoming from the specified operating-hour rule. Licensing, testing, financial-responsibility, size and weight requirements remained, and fatigued drivers had to receive adequate rest. The order expired no later than midnight August 20, 2021; it is historical supply-related activity, not a current waiver or an explanation of the 2026 gasoline price.
Signed 2021-07-20. See original for timing and duration.
Why this record is included
This fact is a five-state Rocky Mountain proxy covering Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Utah and Wyoming. The order concerned a supply input for Wyoming gasoline in 2021, not the 2026 regional retail price. It neither sets pump prices nor demonstrates an effect on the regional average. This relationship does not establish causation. Actions after the measurement period cannot explain its earlier value.
Retained Wyoming evidence context: Rocky Mountain regular gasoline price. This record’s connection to the topic does not establish an effect on the measured result.
The emergency requires that the transportation and delivery of gasoline, diesel, and aviation fuel into and within the State of Wyoming shall be exempt from 49 CFR § 395.3;
[…]
Be it further ordered, this Executive Order shall expire upon the conclusion of the emergency, but no later than midnight, August 20, 2021.
Records come from published fact relationships or reviewed topic records with official supporting evidence and verified Wyoming officeholder attribution. Historical executive officials require evidence tied to the action date and are excluded from incumbent proposals. Inclusion follows an explicit topic review, a related state fact, or the action’s title and supporting evidence. Explicit topic reviews take priority; repeated actions use the most recent explicit review for this topic. Duplicate actions attached to several facts appear once. This topic match is not a new finding that an action caused a result, and the reviewed collection is selective. Collection reviewed Sep 11, 2026.

Wyoming families and businesses shouldn't have to choose between filling up the tank, stocking the fridge, and paying the bills. Years of rising costs have hit rural states hardest, where fewer grocery options and longer supply routes mean price increases land even harder on the family budget. James Byrd will fight to lower energy costs for everyday Wyomingites by supporting responsible domestic production, cutting the red tape that drives prices up, and ending the wasteful foreign wars that leave us footing the bill overseas instead of investing at home.

Statement date not recorded · Profile reviewed Sep 23, 2026
This section matches specific inflation, consumer prices and the cost of living terms in retained, attributed source text from published Wyoming candidate profiles. A profile heading or biography alone does not qualify. The Florida geography is fixed; saved state preferences cannot change these results. A mention can concern a community or group rather than Florida’s statewide measure.
Matching is automatic and does not establish a candidate’s stance, the accuracy of a claim, or an effect on the measured result. Results are grouped by recorded race, then by candidate name. Within each candidate, the matching issue mentions appear first. Only candidates with matching retained statements are shown; this is not a complete race roster. Repeated identical text for the same candidate is shown once. Coverage follows the existing state profiles and is not a complete record of all candidates or everything they have said. Review dates are not statement dates.
Wyoming incumbents
What incumbents are proposing
Explore reviewed bills sponsored by current Wyoming legislators and Wyoming’s congressional delegation, plus retained proposals from Wyoming’s governor and agencies. Each record keeps its latest recorded status and official evidence.
0 matching sponsorships or proposals · 0 Wyoming incumbents. These filters apply only to this section.
No retained proposals match these filters. A missing record does not mean an incumbent has taken no action.
What sponsorship and proposal counts tell us
Only current Wyoming officeholders retained in the reviewed collection qualify. Bills require a recorded primary sponsorship; cosponsors and signing officials are excluded from sponsorship counts. An official introducer recorded as acting by request is labeled “Introduced by request”; that procedural role does not establish personal policy endorsement. Governor and agency records qualify when recorded as proposed. A separately verified governor transmittal can also establish an original proposal whose latest status reflects its later outcome. Signing an enacted law alone does not establish a proposal. A record appearing under several facts is counted once per officeholder. A bill with multiple primary sponsors appears under each recorded sponsor.
Enacted bills, adopted resolutions and unsuccessful measures remain visible as proposal history. Passing one chamber is not enactment. These counts do not measure effectiveness or prove that an action changed a Wyoming statistic. Collection reviewed Sep 11, 2026.
Sources & methods
Every section retains its primary sources, units, reporting periods and comparison limits. Maps, graphs and tables use the same observation and cohort. All 50 states are listed; D.C. and territories are excluded. Missing and suppressed values remain unavailable and never become zero.
#1 is the highest measured value. Equal source values share a rank and leave gaps (1, 2, 2, 4). Ranks use source precision and are descriptive, not a score of the state. Survey uncertainty and reporting coverage can limit comparisons. Published U.S. benchmarks are used where available; a state average is not substituted.
Wyoming snapshots and fiscal sources keep their own dates and accounting scope. National events and federal distribution explainers describe national context. Actions and statements are filtered to Wyoming, retain their reviewed evidence, and do not establish that a policy caused a measured change.
Retained state source collections assembled October 5, 2026. Original review and source dates remain visible. Refreshing this page does not refresh an official data release.
