As of November 1, 2025, millions of Americans may not receive their monthly food benefits through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) due to the ongoing federal government shutdown.

Welcome to this week’s Legislative update. Each week during the session, AARP Wyoming will give you three things that happened at the Capitol that could impact members age 50 and over. While those things might not be the biggest newsmakers, they will be items that bear watching. Let’s get started.
Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon will be the guest during an AARP Wyoming TeleTown Hall at 4 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 25.
AARP data suggests nursing home cases of COVID-19 could be on the rise shortly.
