Primary SB 549

Vetoed · Wisconsin Senate · Lead sponsor

Relating to: allowing representatives of certain federally chartered youth membership organizations to provide information to pupils on public school property.

Maddy summaryThis bill, known as SB 549, would have allowed representatives of federally chartered youth organizations to share information with students on public school property during the school day. The legislation proposed that these groups request permission from school principals to speak about their educational and civic purposes, with principals required to schedule at least one meeting time for each request. It would have created a new statute defining eligible organizations and outlining the process for providing oral or written information to pupils. Although the bill passed the legislature, it was vetoed by the Governor and did not become law.

Primary SB 688

Vetoed · Wisconsin Senate · Lead sponsor

Relating to: local government competitive bidding thresholds and requiring school districts to utilize competitive bidding. (FE)

Maddy summaryThis bill would have raised the minimum spending threshold for mandatory competitive bidding on public construction projects in Wisconsin from $25,000 to $50,000, allowing local governments to award smaller contracts without a formal bidding process. It also required school districts to use competitive bidding for all projects exceeding $25,000 and established specific rules for highway projects, including an exception that would let county boards complete certain portions of a road project directly if the county was already working on it. Additionally, the legislation proposed making emergency contracting rules optional for towns and clarifying definitions for public highway contracts. Ultimately, the bill did not become law after the Governor vetoed it and the legislature failed to override that veto.

Primary SB 608

Vetoed · Wisconsin Senate · Lead sponsor

Relating to: a license to teach based on working as a paraprofessional in a school district. (FE)

Maddy summaryThis bill would have allowed individuals who worked as paraprofessionals in Wisconsin school districts to obtain a teaching license without needing a traditional bachelor's degree. The legislation proposed creating a specific license category for these experienced education support staff, bypassing the standard requirement that all teachers hold a four-year degree with professional training. Under the bill's plan, the state superintendent would have been authorized to issue these licenses based on the applicant's prior work experience in a school district. Although the bill was presented to the governor, it was vetoed and ultimately failed to become law.
