The Assembly will be in session on Thursday, February 20, starting at 10:00 a.m. We expect this will be the last time the Assembly will be on the floor this session. We anticipate the Senate will be on the floor one more time in early March. Please see below bills related to UW System that the Assembly will consider and their next step if they are passed by the Assembly:
- AB-556 Teaching Hours: recognizing teaching hours for providing certain extension services of the University of Wisconsin System. This will still need to pass the Senate.
- AB-627 Extension Services: funding for certain extension services of the University of Wisconsin System and making an appropriation. This will still need to pass the Senate.
- AB-874 UW System Ag Study: requiring a study by the University of System of agricultural programs and issues. This will still need to receive a public hearing in the Senate.
- AB-876 UW Madison Study: requiring the University of Wisconsin-Madison to conduct a research study on developing an agricultural science and technology program. This will still need to receive a public hearing in the Senate.
- SB-117 Athlete Agents Act: adopting revisions to the state’s uniform athlete agents act and providing a penalty. This will go to the Governor.
- SB-205 Military Credit Transfer: transferring academic credits from military transcripts to University of Wisconsin System schools and technical colleges. This will go to the Governor.
- SB-446 UW MIA Project: The University of Wisconsin Missing-in-Action Recovery and Identification Project and making an appropriation. This will go to the Governor.
