What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Department of Children and Families (DCF)

administers a program of emergency assistance to needy persons in cases of fire,

flood, natural disaster, energy crisis, or homelessness or impending homelessness.

Except for cases of energy crisis, DCF must establish the maximum amount of aid

to be granted per family member, and must publish the maximum amount and any

changes to it in the Wisconsin Administrative Register. This bill provides that DCF

must establish the maximum amounts of aid to be granted, including in cases of

energy crisis, rather than the maximum amount to be granted for each family

member, and that DCF must publish the maximum amounts in the Wisconsin

Administrative Register if DCF does not establish those amounts by rule.
