What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill requires the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) to design an official "Made in Wisconsin" logotype for use with products, other than cheese, manufactured in Wisconsin using materials produced in Wisconsin. Under the bill, DATCP must promulgate rules that implement the bill's requirements and that define what constitutes a product manufactured in Wisconsin using materials produced in Wisconsin to qualify for use of the "Made in Wisconsin" logotype. The bill makes it an unfair trade practice for any person to affix to or display in connection with a product the words "Made in Wisconsin" except as provided in the rules promulgated by DATCP under the bill.
