Governor's Veto Message
December 18, 1995
To the Honorable Members of the Assembly:
I have approved 1995
Assembly Bill 583 as
1995 Wisconsin Act 116 and have deposited it in the office of the Secretary of State. Because this is an appropriation bill, I have exercised the partial veto in sections 1, 1c, 4 and 5.
AB 583 creates a job training loan guarantee program in the Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority (WHEDA), which will be administered by the Department of Development. I support this program and my objections to the bill are technical in nature. I believe that these vetoes do not change the substance of the bill and facilitate the administration of this program for the Department of Development.
Sections 1 and 1c create appropriation s.
20.143 (4)(hs) - Executive and Administrative Services. I am vetoing these sections because the department already has appropriation s.
20.143 (1)(g) - Gift, Grant and Proceeds which can be used for this purpose. As such, creating a new appropriation for this program is unnecessary.
Section 4 directs that all reimbursements and fees be deposited in the appropriation under s.
20.143 (4)(hs) created under this bill. I am partially vetoing this section to remove the deposit requirement because it is no longer necessary due to my veto of sections 1 and 1c. The department will still have the authority to deposit these funds in the gifts and grants appropriation under s. 20. 143 (1)(g).
Section 5 authorizes WHEDA and the Department of Development to establish an eligibility review panel. I am partially vetoing this provision to clarify that the department has the administrative responsibility for the job training loan guarantee program. This section also directs the Department of Development to submit an annual report on the program every year on November 1. I am partially vetoing this section to remove the reporting date because it imposes additional reporting requirements on the department. I am requesting the Department of Development to include information on the job training loan guarantee program in the semiannual status report on Wisconsin Development Fund Programs, which are submitted to the chairs of the economic development committees of the Legislature.
I believe these vetoes clarify provisions of the bill and facilitate the administration of the program by the Department of Development.
Respectfully submitted,
TOMMY G. THOMPSON
Governor

To the Honorable, the Legislature:
As required by s.
115.38, Wis. Stats., I am transmitting the 1993-94 School Performance Report. Under the law, school districts are required to prepare and distribute reports to parents and guardians each year, and the State Superintendent of Public Instruction is required to prepare a statewide summary and submit it to the legislature on an annual basis.
Wisconsin law divides information in the School Performance Report into three categories:
