Assembly panel opposes move of Barron lab to River Falls
The Assembly agriculture committee voted 10-3 to oppose moving the Regional Animal Health Laboratory from Barron to River Falls. The plan would merge with UW River Falls vet school to form a Regional Food Animal Clinic Support Unit. Testimony favored keeping Barron site, noting regional access and local livestock density. The bill seeks to require legislative approval to move the lab, with a Senate review likely before a full vote.
