Today, Senator Dan Feyen (R-Fond du Lac), released the following statement after Special Session Legislation on workforce development was referred to the Senate Committee on Economic Development and Technical Colleges.

“There’s no question that Wisconsin faces workforce challenges and the state must step up to find solutions. Some of the issues included in this special session bill need to be addressed sooner rather than later to keep the Wisconsin economy on track.

“I plan on treating this bill the same as every other bill referred to this committee. I look forward to holding a public hearing and gathering input from the people of Wisconsin as we focus this legislation to have the greatest impact possible.”
