Dairy Industry Promotion Appropriation Section 25
This section repeals the dairy industry promotion appropriation under s. 20.115 (4) (d) at the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection. I am vetoing this section because I object to limiting the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection's ability to promote the dairy industry in Wisconsin. Our dairy farmers, families, and industry are an essential part of Wisconsin's history, economy, and heritage. This veto retains the current law dairy industry promotion appropriation under s. 20.115 (4) (d).
22.
Dairy Industry Promotion Grants and Loans Section 335
This section repeals the authority for the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection to provide grants and loans to dairy producers.
I am vetoing this section because I object to limiting the ability of the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection to promote the dairy industry in Wisconsin, America's Dairyland, by providing grants and loans to dairy producers. Given the importance of the dairy industry to our state, we should retain all current options to provide support to our dairy producers.
33.
Unencumbered Rural Development Loan Funds Section 24
This section transfers, upon the approval of the Joint Committee on Finance, the unencumbered balance of the loans for rural development appropriation under s. 20.115 (3) (h) to the general purpose revenue funds general program supplementation appropriation under s. 20.865 (4) (a). I am vetoing this section because I object to transferring PR funds intended for rural development and placing them into a GPR appropriation for an unspecified purpose. In addition, this provision may be in violation of federal guidance.

Wisconsin Initiative for Agricultural Exports Section 9102 (1)
This provision requires the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection to submit a joint plan with the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation to the cochairpersons of the Joint Committee on Finance for allocating $5,000,000 over five years to increase agricultural exports by 2026 to 25 percent over their 2021 levels.
I am vetoing this provision because I object to a reporting requirement that is unnecessary and administratively burdensome. Over the past two and a half years, my administration has worked diligently to promote agricultural exports and launch this initiative, only to be met by inaction from the Legislature. In this budget, the Legislature again fails to provide the needed resources for this critical program to support our farmers, their families, and our agriculture economy. Requiring the submittal of this joint plan to the Joint Committee on Finance would simply be another step that could delay providing economic opportunities for Wisconsin's farmers and agricultural processors. It is also particularly unnecessary given that the Legislature failed to appropriate sufficient dollars in this budget to fund a five-year plan.
55.
Industrial Hemp Program Staffing Section 9102 (2)
This provision requires the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection to study options for resolving the deficit in the hemp program and submit a report to the cochairpersons of the Joint Committee on Finance no later than March 30, 2022.
I am vetoing this provision because I object to a study that is burdensome and unnecessary. The financial situation of the hemp appropriation is well documented, and the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection will need to make a decision on the future of the program several months prior to the due date of the report.

Beaver Dam Lake Restoration Section 41
This provision directs the Department of Natural Resources to provide $220,200 from the environmental fund in a new biennial appropriation for grants to the Beaver Dam Lake Improvement Association for restoration of shoreline along Beaver Dam Lake at Puckagee Springs Creek. The appropriation would be repealed on June 30, 2023.
I am partially vetoing this provision because I object to utilizing environmental fund dollars for a purpose that is unrelated to the environmental fund. By striking the reference to the environmental fund, the funding for this provision defaults to the conservation fund. This will preserve funds in the environmental fund to be used for much-needed environmental initiatives.
77.
Clam Falls Dam Repair Section 43
This provision directs the Department of Natural Resources to provide $2,000,000 from the environmental fund in a new biennial appropriation for a grant to Polk County for repairs to the dam on Clam River near the town of Clam Falls. The appropriation would be repealed on June 30, 2023.
I am partially vetoing this provision because I object to utilizing environmental fund dollars for a purpose that is unrelated to the environmental fund. By striking the reference to the environmental fund, the funding for this provision defaults to the conservation fund. This will preserve funds in the environmental fund to be used for much-needed environmental initiatives.
88.
Dead Pike Lake Restoration Section 45
This provision directs the Department of Natural Resources to provide $125,000 from the environmental fund in a new biennial appropriation for a grant to the town of Manitowish Waters in Vilas County for installation of a water control structure. The appropriation would be repealed on June 30, 2023.
I am partially vetoing this provision because I object to utilizing environmental fund dollars for a purpose that is unrelated to the environmental fund. By striking the reference to the environmental fund, the funding for this provision defaults to the conservation fund. This will preserve funds in the environmental fund to be used for much-needed environmental initiatives.
99.
Southeastern Wisconsin Fox River Commission Section 47

The appropriation would be repealed on June 30, 2023.
I am partially vetoing this provision because I object to utilizing environmental fund dollars for a purpose that is unrelated to the environmental fund. By striking the reference to the environmental fund, the funding for this provision defaults to the conservation fund. This will preserve funds in the environmental fund to be used for much-needed environmental initiatives.
