No new Wyoming government jobs will be created in the near future.
Gov. Dave Freudenthal recently announced that he is imposing a restriction on state agency hiring in response to declining revenue projections. Freudenthal also has ordered agencies to limit non-essential spending.
“Generally positions are not to be filled,” Freudenthal said in a press release. “There will be exceptions based on application from the agencies, primarily in areas related to public health and safety.”
