What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill specifies that the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin

System must provide funding for two agriculture and climate change research

positions assigned to the Division of Extension at UW-Madison. The positions must

be filled using existing, currently vacant positions but must also reflect an increase

in the total number of research positions at UW-Madison.

The bill also provides additional funding for special education aid the

Department of Public Instruction pays to school districts, independent charter

schools, cooperative educational service agencies, and county children with

disabilities education boards.
