Legislative Agenda
Wisconsin’s Business Voice
WMC’s mission is to make Wisconsin the most competitive state in the nation to do business.
Unfortunately, politicians and bureaucrats do not always understand how your business works or how their decisions impact you. That is why WMC is on the front lines every day to ensure your interests are being represented.
WMC is consistently ranked as the number one lobbying organization in Wisconsin. No one spends more time and energy fighting for the business community.
Founded in 1911, our mission is to make Wisconsin the most competitive state in the nation to do business. We are Wisconsin’s business voice.
This session, several key challenges, including high health care costs, skilled labor shortages, and a high tax burden, present opportunities for creative policy solutions.
We enter this session with a $4 billion budget surplus resulting from responsible spending decisions by the Legislature, as well as the enactment of pro-growth policies. Unfortunately, Governor Evers has been unwilling to give the surplus back to its rightful owners: the taxpayers.
Additionally, Wisconsin students still have an unacceptably-high lack of proficiency in basic skills like reading and math. Nearly two-thirds of public K-12 students cannot read or do math at grade level, leaving them handicapped as they enter the workforce or the next chapter of their education.
The WMC Legislative Agenda provides policymakers with a roadmap to address these and many other critical issues
facing our state.
