‘Cowboy ethics’ become law
The principles of “cowboy ethics” are now part of Wyoming law.
Gov. Dave Freudenthal signed legislation adopting an official Wyoming state code.
The symbolic measure spells out 10 ethics derived from a “Code of the West” outlined in a book by author and retired Wall Street investor James Owen.
The ethics code carries no criminal penalties and is not
meant to replace any civil codes.
The state code admonishes residents and lawmakers to live courageously, take pride in their work, finish what they start,
do what’s necessary and be tough but fair.
It also calls on them to keep promises, ride for the brand,
talk less and say more,
remember that some
things aren’t
for sale,
and know where
to draw the line.
