What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, there is appropriated to the Higher Educational Aids Board

(HEAB) $20,797,900 in fiscal year 2013-14 and $18,797,900 in fiscal year 2014-15

for Wisconsin higher education grants (WHEG grants) for technical college students.

This bill converts that appropriation to a sum sufficient appropriation, but caps the

amount that may be expended from that appropriation in each of fiscal years

2013-14 and 2014-15 at the amount necessary to fund WHEG grants for all eligible

technical college students who apply for those grants as determined under the same

formula that HEAB used to award those grants in fiscal year 2011-12.
