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 Workforce Development to establish a program for the placement of paid interns with Wisconsin businesses. Under the bill, each intern must be at least 18 years old, be enrolled in an institution of higher education, and come from a household whose income does not exceed 300 percent of the federal poverty line based on family size. Each intern must be paid a stipend of at least $15 per hour, which may be paid for up to 20 hours per week of work for work performed during certain periods set forth in the bill that correspond to the academic school year. The bill requires that the stipend be disregarded in establishing household income for purposes of obtaining public benefits under any state program.

Additionally, the bill requires DWD to seek to coordinate with the private sector to administer the intern placement program and to provide matching funds for purposes of paying intern stipends. The bill appropriates $500,000 to DWD for the program.
