Be It Enacted by the Legislature of the State of Wyoming: Section 1. There is created a legislative stabilization reserve account. Funds within the legislative stabilization reserve account shall not be expended except upon a two-thirds (2/3) vote of each house of the legislature voting separately. This legislative stabilization reserve account is created in anticipation of the passage of 2005 House Joint Resolution 1, authorizing the creation of special reserve accounts and restricting appropriations from special reserve accounts created pursuant to Article 16, Section 13 of the Wyoming Constitution. Funds within the legislative stabilization reserve account created by this act shall not be appropriated until the results of the 2006 general elections have been certified. If the Constitutional amendment proposed by 2005 House Joint Resolution 1, is approved by the electors the legislative stabilization reserve account created by this act shall be designated as an account created pursuant to Wyoming Constitution Article 16, Section 13, and the account shall be restricted as provided in Article 16, Section 13. Funds within the account shall be invested by the state treasurer as authorized under W.S. 9 ‑ 4 ‑ 711 in a manner to obtain the highest return possible consistent with the preservation of the corpus. If the electors approve 2005 House Joint Resolution 1, monies within the account shall be considered permanent funds of the state for purposes of Article 16, Section 6 of the Wyoming Constitution. Any earnings from investment of monies in the legislative stabilization reserve account shall be credited by the state treasurer to the general fund. Section 2. This act is effective July 1, 2005.
