Does Wyoming's Constitution provide explicit protections for equality before the law?

• A. Equality before the law is not explicitly protected.
• B. Equal protection is guaranteed.
• C. There is no explicit protection.
• D. Only applicable to citizens.

Answer: (C)

Wyoming’s Constitution does not include a stand-alone clause that says everyone is equal before the law. The text provides broad protections—such as due process and prohibitions against arbitrary government action—but there isn’t an explicit, written equality-before-the-law provision. Because the question asks about explicit protections, the correct answer reflects that absence: there is no explicit equality-before-the-law guarantee in the Wyoming Constitution. In practice, challenges to unequal treatment may be addressed through other rights and through judicial interpretation, but the explicit, named clause isn’t present in the document.
