Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, the Council on Highway Safety (council), created by the
Department of Transportation, consists of 15 members. The members of the council
include three representatives to the assembly and two senators, each of whom must
serve on a standing committee dealing with transportation matters.
This bill eliminates the requirement that the representatives to the assembly
and the senators who are appointed to the council must serve on a standing
committee dealing with transportation matters.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
