For 2005-07 Budget -- Not Ready For Introduction
2005 BILL

AN ACT ...; relating to: increasing the individual income tax deduction for college tuition expenses.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
taxation
Income taxation
Current law provides a subtraction from federal adjusted gross income for an amount paid, up to $3,000 per year per student, for tuition to attend a university, college, technical college, or other school that is approved by the Educational Approval Board and that is located in this state or that is subject to the Minnesota-Wisconsin reciprocity agreement. The subtraction is phased out at certain income levels. Also under current law, nonresidents and part-year residents of this state may claim a prorated amount of the subtraction based on a fraction, the numerator of which is the individual's wages, income, and net earnings from a trade or business that are taxable by this state and the denominator of which is the individual's total wages, income, and net earnings from a trade or business. The subtraction is further limited to the total wages, income, and net earnings from a trade or business taxable by this state.
This bill increases the amount of the allowable subtraction from $3,000 per year per student to $5,100 or twice the average amount charged by the board of regents of the University of Wisconsin System at four-year institutions for resident undergraduate tuition for the most recent fall semester, whichever is greater.
This bill will be referred to the Joint Survey Committee on Tax Exemptions for a detailed analysis, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
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. 71.05 (6) (b) 28. a. of the statutes is amended to read:

71.05 (6) (b) 28. a.

SECTION 9341. Initial applicability; revenue.

(1) SUBTRACT MODIFICATION FOR TUITION EXPENSES.

AN ACT ...; relating to: the budget.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Correctional system
Adult correctional system
Under current law, DOC and DHFS operate the Drug Abuse Correctional Center Program in Winnebago, which provides substance abuse treatment for prison inmates transferred there. If DOC determines that an inmate has successfully completed the program, the inmate is released early to parole or extended supervision. Inmates convicted of certain violent crimes or certain offenses against children are not eligible for early release under this program. Inmates who are sentenced under the "Truth in Sentencing" law are eligible only if the court authorizes their participation. This bill authorizes DOC to establish similar treatment and release programs at any state prison.

The bill directs the Sentencing Commission to review sentences imposed on individuals who are convicted of nonviolent offenses, other than those relating to operating a vehicle while under the influence of an intoxicant, or with a restricted controlled substance or a prohibited level of alcohol in his or her blood, and to develop recommendations for alternative dispositions for those individuals that may be used by courts at or before sentencing. The Sentencing Commission must submit its recommendations in a report to the legislature by December 31, 2005.
