1212 Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
1313 This bill repeals a prohibition enacted as part of 2023 Wisconsin Act 12 under
1414 which a local health officer may not issue a mandate to close a business in order to
1515 control an outbreak or epidemic of communicable disease for longer than 30 days
1616 unless the governing body of the political subdivision in which the order is intended
1717 to apply approves an extension, which may not exceed 30 days. The bill eliminates
1818 those restrictions.
