AI Summary

This bill ratifies a collective bargaining agreement negotiated between the state of Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Law Enforcement Association (WLEA) for the 2025-27 biennium, which covers employees in the public safety collective bargaining unit. The bill authorizes the expenditure of funds from statutory program supplement appropriations to implement the agreement, as approved by the employees and recommended by the joint committee on employment relations. Specifically, the bill requires the administrator of the division of personnel management to file an official, certified copy of the agreement with the secretary of state, and stipulates that only the provisions in this official copy are considered approved by the legislature. The act will take effect the day after publication, with certain provisions potentially having different effective dates as specified in the original agreement. This type of bill is common in public sector labor relations, allowing the legislature to formally approve and fund negotiated changes to employment terms for a specific group of state employees.
