DIGEST OF THE SENATE BILL AS RETURNED TO THE SENATE
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.
