What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under prior law, the Labor and Industry Review Commission (LIRC) was

attached to the Department of Workforce Development (DWD) and moneys were

appropriated to DWD for the activities of LIRC.

2015 Wisconsin Act 55

(the 2015-17

biennial budget act) attached LIRC to the Department of Administration and

appropriated moneys directly to LIRC.

This bill provides for the transfer of federal moneys received by DWD to LIRC

for unemployment administration and equal rights functions performed by LIRC

and of other moneys transferred to LIRC for other purposes.
