Formal and informal. WYDOT and the Legislature interact face-to-face and through issue-specific materials provided at the request of the Legislature or on WYDOT's initiative. WYDOT's executive team works closely with the Legislature during the legislative session and with the Joint Transportation, Highways and Military Affairs Committee during the interim. WYDOT is generally given one full day to present its concerns and issues at each of three committee meetings. Between committee meetings, the state's legislative attorneys work directly with WYDOT to draft and prepare legislation for the committee to consider. Typically, WYDOT personnel are given the opportunity to comment and suggest revisions to legislative drafts before those drafts are presented to the committee. WYDOT is also given the opportunity to suggest topics for the committee to consider and study during its interim work. WYDOT employs a dedicated legislative coordinator.
