19actions is filed with the department.
Note: Inserts correct term. A draft of the amendment of this provision by Act 55
changed "department" to "office," but that change was not retained in the final bill. This
single occurrence of "office" in s. 102.16, left a reference without an antecedent.
AB950,59 20Section 59. 108.04 (8) (b) of the statutes, as created by 2015 Wisconsin Act 55,
21is amended to read:
AB950,23,25
1108.04 (8) (b) There is a rebuttable presumption that an employee has failed,
2without good cause, to accept suitable work when offered if the department
3determines, based on a report submitted by an employing unit in accordance with s.
4108.133 (4), that the employing unit required, as a condition of an offer of
5employment, that the employee submit to a test for the presence of controlled
6substances and withdrew the conditional offer after the employee either declined to
7submit to such a test or tested positive for one or more controlled substances without
8evidence of a valid prescription for each controlled substance for which the employee
9tested positive. In the case of the employee declining to submit to such a test, the
10employee shall be ineligible for benefits until the employee again qualifies for
11benefits in accordance with the rules promulgated under this paragraph. In the case
12of the employee testing positive in such a test without evidence of a valid
13prescription, the employee shall be ineligible for benefits until the employee again
14qualifies for benefits in accordance with the rules promulgated under this
15paragraph, except that the employee may maintain his or her eligibility for benefits
16in the same manner as is provided in s. 108.133 (3) (d). The department shall

18requalification requirement that must be satisfied, or both, in order for an employee
19who becomes ineligible for benefits as provided in this paragraph to again qualify for
20benefits and specifying how a claimant may overcome the presumption in this
21paragraph. The department shall charge to the fund's balancing account any
22benefits otherwise chargeable to the account of an employer that is subject to the
23contribution requirements under ss. 108.17 and 108.18 whenever an employee of

25paragraph.

7bargaining unit under sub. (1r) or (1t), whichever is appropriate. Except as
8otherwise provided in this subchapter, the commission may not assign any other
9persons to the collective bargaining units under sub. (1r) or (1t).
Note: Section 111.825 (2) (a), (b), (c), (g), (h), and (i) were renumbered effective July
1, 2015, by 2011 Wis. Act 32. The cross-reference is changed to reflect the law in effect
immediately prior to the renumbering.

4provide the data needed by the entity under subd. 1. for purposes of making the
5report required under sub. (3m) (a) 6 (f).
Note: Corrects a cross-reference. Section 118.40 (3m) (f) relates to reports to the
state superintendent by entities. Section 118.40 (3m) (f) was originally drafted as s.
118.40 (3m) (a) 6., but was renumbered s. 118.40 (3m) (f) when s. 118.40 (3m) (b) was
removed from the bill that became 2015 Wis. Act 55.
AB950,63 6Section 63. 118.51 (12) (a) (title) of the statutes is repealed.
Note: Section 118.51 (12) (a) was renumbered to s. 118.51 (12) by 2015 Wis. Act
55
without accounting for the paragraph title. Section 118.51 (12) has an existing title,
rendering the paragraph title surplusage. The paragraph title has been removed from
the published statutes.
AB950,64 7Section 64. 118.60 (3) (ar) 4. and 5. of the statutes, as affected by 2015
8Wisconsin Act 55

AB950,26,213 5. A private school that has accepted a pupil who resides in a school district,
14other than an eligible school district or a 1st class city school district, under this
15paragraph shall notify the department whenever the private school determines that
16a pupil will not attend the private school under this paragraph. If, upon receiving
17notice under this subdivision, the department determines that the number of pupils
18attending private schools under this section falls below a school district's pupil
19participation limit under sub. (2) (be), the department shall fill any available slot in

1that school district with a pupil selected from the school district's waiting list
2established under subd. 4., if such a waiting list exists.
Note: Corrects cross-reference. Section 118.60 (2) (be) establishes pupil
participation limits. Inserts missing "list" as indicated by the use of "such a waiting list."
AB950,65 3Section 65. The treatment of 119.04 (1) of the statutes by 2015 Wisconsin Act
455
is not repealed by 2015 Wisconsin Act 92. Both treatments stand.

8building in the previous school year was less than 80 percent of the number of hours
9of pupil instruction required to be scheduled under s. 121.02 (1) (f) 2.
Note: Corrects cross-reference. There is no s. 121.02 (1) (f) 2. Section 121.02 (1)
(f) provides the number of hours of pupil instruction that school boards are required to
schedule.
AB950,67 10Section 67. 119.9003 (4) (c) of the statutes, as created by 2015 Wisconsin Act

1the limit on schools in the opportunity schools and partnership program under s.
2119.9002 (2) (a), but not for purposes of performance benchmarking.

Note: Section 153.75 (1) (k) authorized rulemaking "establishing methods and
criteria for assessing health care providers under s. 153.60 (1)." 2015 Wis. Act 55
consolidated and renumbered s. 153.60 (intro.) and (1) to be s. 153.60 and amended s.
153.60, as renumbered. The amendment of s. 153.60 by Act 55 deleted the provision for
the assessment of health care providers in the former s. 153.60 (1), rendering s. 153.75
(1) (k) without effect.

16contracting municipalities need not be contiguous and need not all be in the same
17county. Upon entering into or discontinuing such an agreement, the contracting
18municipalities shall each transmit a certified copy of the ordinance or bylaw effecting
19or discontinuing the agreement to the appropriate filing officer under s. 11.0102 (1)
20(c) and to the director of state courts. When a municipal judge is elected under this
21subsection, candidates shall be nominated by filing nomination papers under s. 8.10
22(6) (bm), and shall register with the filing officer specified in s. 11.0102 (1) (c).
Note: Inserts the correct cross-reference. 2015 Wis. Act 117 struck "11.02 (3e)"
in two places but did not insert the new cross-reference for filing officers in the second

instance. Section 11.0102 (1) (c), as created by 2015 Wis. Act 117, identifies the filing
officer for municipal judges elected under s. 755.01 (4).
AB950,83 1Section 83. 767.511 (1) (b) of the statutes is amended to read:
AB950,31,122 767.511 (1) (b) Ensure that the parties have stipulated which party, if either
3is eligible, will claim each child as an exemption for federal income tax purposes
4under 26 USC 151 (c) (1) (B), or as an exemption for state income tax purposes under
5s. 71.07 (8) (b) or under the laws of another state. If the parties are unable to reach
6an agreement about the tax exemption for each child, the court shall make the
7decision in accordance with state and federal tax laws. In making its decision, the
8court shall consider whether the parent who is assigned responsibility for the child's
9health care expenses under s. 767.513 is covered under a health insurance policy or
10plan, including a self-insured plan, that is not subject to s. 632.897 (10) and that
11conditions coverage of a dependent child on whether the child is claimed by the
12insured parent as an exemption for purposes of federal or state income taxes.
Note: Corrects cross-reference. 26 USC 151 (c), which provides exemptions for
dependents for federal income tax purposes, does not contain subdivisions.
