Day at the Wyoming Legislature: Thursday, Feb. 10

CHEYENNE (AP) — Developments on the 23rd day of the 2011 General Session of the Wyoming Legislature, Thursday, Feb. 10, 2011:

GRAND TETON LAND — The Senate gave preliminary approval to a bill that would authorize the sale of more than 1,000 acres of state land in Grand Teton National Park to the federal government.

VOTING RIGHTS — A House committee recommended approval of a bill to allow counties to reconfigure voting districts despite some protests that it targets American Indians. The bill would allow election of county commissioners both at-large and from established districts in the same county. A federal judge rejected such a proposed plan in Fremont County, where American Indians have successfully challenged at-large voting.

DATA CENTERS — The Senate for the second time voted to approve a bill that would give tax exemptions to mega data centers built in Wyoming.

MUSEUMS — A bill that would give a property tax exemption for nonprofit museums received preliminary approval in the House. It has already passed the Senate.

FILM INDUSTRY — The House voted in favor of a bill to continue the state's incentive program for the film industry.

AIR QUALITY — The House for the second time approved a resolution that would ask Congress to limit air quality regulation by the federal Environmental Protection Agency.
