Great News!  AB 257 and SB 258 have been voted out of their respective committees.  The next step is to schedule them for a vote by both the full Senate and Assembly. There is bipartisan support and consensus language from the Governor's office.  

WIACNS is very appreciative of the leadership of the Bill Sponsors: Senator Patrick Testin and Representative Tony Kurtz.

The number of legislators who have signed on as co-sponsors is quite impressive:

54% of the Senators: Cabral-Guevara, Roys, Dassler-Alfheim, Habush. James, Sinykin, Hesselbein, Keyeski, LeMahieu, Marklein, Quinn, Ratcliff, Smith, Spreitzer, Drake, Larson and Jacque;

30% of the Representatives: Subeck, Rodriguez, Andraca, Behnke, Brown, Cruz, DeSmidt, Emerson, Gundrum, Joers, Kreibich, Maxey, Murphy, O'Connor, Ortiz-Velez, Prado, Spiros, Tusler, Udell, Wichgers, Donovan, Palmeri, Miresse, Goeben, Knodl,  Kitchens, Madison, Snodgrass, Moses, and Vining

WNA will keep you updated on the status of AB 257 and SB 258 as they head toward a floor vote. 

Thank you for your support and advocacy!
