2023

Case earns a () for Representation regarding his public conduct of gaming his votes (2023 -SF0013) on the Senate floor.

Attendance

It appears that Case missed eight votes in 2023 General Session, six of which were acknowledged conflicts.

The two non-conflict votes that Case missed were:

  • 1/30/23 – Senate Judiciary committee vote for SF120;
  • 2/21/23 – Senate concurrence vote for SF16.

The conflict votes that Case acknowledged and recused himself from were:

Regarding SF0013 noted above – Case appeared to play musical chairs with his vote as follows:

  • Recused for conflict during Senate Corporations committee on 1/19/23
  • Recused for conflict during Senate 3rd Reading on 1/14/23
  • Recused for conflict during Senate concurrence on 2/13/23
  • Voted to concur on *Bill Reconsideration Motion on 2/13/23
  • Recused for conflict to 2nd Senate concurrence on 2/13/23

*Reconsideration of the Vote is basically an opportunity for legislators on the prevailing side of a vote, to call for a second vote – giving opportunity for legislators to change their vote.  It is described in detail in the WY Joint Rules Handbook.

Public Conduct

The gaming Case played with the above mentioned SF0013 votes is a shameful public display of violating Wyoming Constitution Article 3, Section 46. Interested member shall not vote.

Conflicts

Case has scored a () for Integrity.

Case has an acknowledged conflict of interest with bills that focus on liquor licenses.  On 2/13/23 Case voted on Reconsideration of the Bill for Senate File #SF0013 that he had an acknowledged personal conflict with.

Additionally, and significantly, Case is President of Case & Company which he describes as an “economic consulting firm specializing in public utility, energy, regulatory and resource economics” (archived here).  (Case is also a Senior Regulatory Specialist for Segura Consulting where he specializes in “telecommunications, electric and gas utilities, and energy and environmental resources” that serves the global community.)

One would assume that there are too many conflicts of interest for Case to be a legislator at all.  Despite that however, Case currently serves as the Senate Committee Chair for the Corporations Committee and a member of the Energy Council.  Case serving on these committees is, in our opinion, a conflict of interest.

Noted below are 2023 bills that Case voted on or sponsored that he likely had an unacknowledged conflict of interest.

HB0061 – Source material associated with mining-agreement.
HB0284 – Collection agency regulation-debt buyers.
SF0154 – Energy authority project financing-refineries.
