What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill requires the Department of Administration and local units of

government to give preference, over a bidder from a neighboring state that requires

a certain percentage of a contractor's employees on a state project be residents of that

state, to a person that can ensure that the percentage of employees the person will

employ who are Wisconsin residents is at least that percentage required by the

neighboring state to be that state's residents.
