Bill to achieve the change is part of special session agenda

By Dave Umhoefer January 14, 2011

One of Scott Walker's first promises, which we have rated Promise Kept, was to call a special legislative session on jobs on the day he was sworn in.

A bill to achieve a Commerce Department makeover was part of the Jan. 3 call for a special session. Lawmakers are considering the proposal to make the department into a public-private agency focused only on job growth. It would be modeled after the approach taken by Indiana.

Since work is underway, and a plan has been introduced, we will move this one to In the Works.
