DIGEST
SB 107 Engrossed 2022 Regular Session Luneau
Present law provides that the Incumbent Worker Training Program (IWTP) re-authorization shall
be expressly renewed by the legislature prior to July 1, 2022, in order for amounts to be charged and
credited to the Incumbent Worker Training Account in the following calendar year for use in funding
the program.
Proposed law retains present law but requires the legislature to renew the IWTP re-authorization
prior to July 1, 2026.
Present law provides that the Louisiana Workforce Commission (LWC) and all the statutory entities
made a part of that department by law shall begin to terminate its operations on July 1, 2022, and that
all legislative authority for such entities ceases as of July 1, 2023, unless the legislature enacts a bill
authorizing the re-creation of the department and its statutory entities prior thereto.
Proposed law provides for the general re-creation of the LWC and its statutory entities, effective
June 30, 2022, in accordance with the "sunset" law.
Proposed law supersedes the provisions of the "sunset" law which set out the procedure for review
and re-creation and which require a separate bill to re-create each statutory entity within the
department along with additional provisions.
Proposed law makes July 1, 2027, the new termination date and termination would begin July 1,
2026, unless the department is re-created again.
Effective June 30, 2022.
