LEGISLATIVE WATCH WYOMING: Governor Signs Law Setting Minimum Age to Marry

Gov. Mark Gordon on Thursday signed a law that sets a minimum age limit for marriages in Wyoming.

The governor green-lighted House Enrolled Act 44, also known as House Bill 7 or “Underage marriage-amendments,” which requires that individuals getting married must be at least 18 years old (with few exceptions) and prohibits marriages for anyone under the age of 16.
