Wyoming Gov. Mead emphasizes $2.5M economic diversity plan

Gov. Matt Mead says his new $2.5 million initiative to develop a comprehensive plan to diversify the economy is critical to the future stability of the state.

The Economically Needed Diversity Options for Wyoming (ENDOW) program was one of only three exception funding requests the governor put in his interim budget plan released last week, as the state faces revenue shortfalls totaling some $157 million in the coming year.

Mead is placing a high priority on the effort, saying stable funding streams for government and more opportunities for young adults are two key elements in Wyoming’s future.
