Conflicts

Since he first took office Wylie has consistently disclosed that he is the Vice President of Wylie Construction Inc.  Yet he was the primary sponsor and voted on HB0253 – Construction lien revisions.  HB0253 revises requirements for preliminary lien notices for contractors, subcontractors and materialmen.  This bill directly affects his private business and thus was ethically inappropriate for him to sponsor per the following Wyoming Constitutional provision:

Wyoming State Constitution: Article 3, Section 46

A member who has a personal or private interest in any measure or bill proposed or pending before the legislature shall disclose the fact to the house of which he is a member, and shall not vote thereon.

Employment/Income

According to his 2025/2026 financial disclosure:

  • V.P – Wylie Construction Inc. (Rock Springs, WY)
  • Directorship – Wylie & Son’s Ventures LLC (Rock Springs, WY)
  • Investment Income – Real estate, leases, or royalties
