Charles K. Scott (born August 19, 1945) is a Republican member of the Wyoming Senate, representing the 30th district since 1983. Previously he was in the Wyoming House of Representatives from 1979 to 1982. From 1993-1994 he was vice president of the Senate. On January 6, 2025 his current term ends. In 1967, he received his B.A. from Harvard College and his MBA from Harvard Business School in 1969. Scott won reelection in 2016 over Democratic opponent Robert Ford 5,831-1,521 (79.3% - 20.7%). In 2012, Scott sponsored a resolution, SJR 3, meant to provide "health-care freedom" upon its amendment to the state constitution. In February 2022, Scott was a strong proponent for a budget amendment to eliminate the University of Wyoming Gender Studies program, stating that it was, "extremely biased, ideologically driven that I can’t see any academically legitimacy to".
