A Laramie County District Court judge on Wednesday ruled that the Wyoming Legislature has been unconstitutionally underfunding the state’s public schools, and ordered the state to remodel its spending on education.

This is great news for the people of Wyoming!
Sounds like it. But the people who suffered from under funded education will never have that injury remedied.
The people responsible for this problem (I'm assuming Republicans) should face some consequences.

Oh, they will. They're going to have to listen to this judge droning on and on :eye-roll: and they'll probably be late for lunch.
/s, hopefully obviously.
