***AUTHORS SUBJECT TO CHANGE***
AN ACT relating to: positions for the Office of School Safety.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, there is an Office of School Safety in the Department of
Justice. The office has 14.2 project positions that will expire on October 1, 2025; the
purpose of these positions is to support and enhance school safety initiatives.
Under current law, the positions are funded by fees that DOJ receives for
performing background checks for handgun sales and for issuing licenses to carry a
concealed weapon. This bill creates the positions as permanent positions and funds
them with general purpose revenue beginning on October 1, 2025, when the project
positions expire.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
SECTION 1. Nonstatutory provisions.
