Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill requires that a recipient of a loan, grant, or tax credit from the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation report certain job losses or jobs relocated outside of Wisconsin to WEDC within seven business days after the jobs are eliminated or relocated. If the participant shows that extenuating circumstances prevent meeting the seven-day requirement, the participant may submit the report within 30 days. The bill further requires that no loan, grant, or tax credit from WEDC may be used to relocate jobs outside of Wisconsin or to reduce net employment in Wisconsin.
