AI Summary
This bill, proposed by the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC), aims to remove outdated legal requirements by repealing provisions that mandated the hiring of specific positions within the WEDC. Specifically, it eliminates the requirement for WEDC to employ a full-time "electronics manufacturing small business development director" and also removes the obligation for WEDC to appoint and oversee an "economic development liaison project position." Both of these positions had their legal mandates expire on December 31, 2022, making the original statutory requirements obsolete and no longer legally binding.
