New Law

Senate Bill 22 (APA Rules: Increasing Costs Prohibition.) has now been signed by the Governor and should result in fewer regulations for the business community.  The new law seeks to limit  new agency regulatory requirements that result in substantial additional costs.  Before an agency can adopt a new rule it must make a determination as to the cost associated with the rule.  Hopefully this will decrease the number of new rules and regulations faced by business.


We have one new law but watch this piece of legislation - SENATE BILL 386.  This bill would repeal the prohibition on contracts between governmental entities and labor organizations for the purpose of collective bargaining.  Does the word "Wisconsin" come to mind.  Lets hope this bill is put to rest very quickly.
