Wisconsin tackles water control and oleo bans in early session
Wisconsin lawmakers spent the first spring session week debating a three member water quality control commission and a $200 million loan program to curb pollution. Gov Knowles endorsed the plan as a good start amid some opposition and concerns over consolidation of powers. The Assembly also rejected repeal of the oleo color ban and a seven cent per pound tax, while the Joint Finance Committee advanced a doubled student loan program and liberalized Homestead Tax Relief Act funding. Additional measures would expand the Wisconsin Blue Book pages and adjust printing schedules.
