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.
2021-22 Legislative Agenda
The global pandemic hit Wisconsin businesses and families particularly hard in 2020, resulting in record levels of unemployment, and the closure of many businesses.
Wisconsin’s economy proved comparatively resilient, however, and we are well on the road to recovery. The economic challenges of 2020 underscore the importance of having the right policies in place to enable our state to weather an economic storm, and to maintain an environment where jobs and investment will thrive.
Despite many recent successes, the hard work is not over. We must build on these pro-growth policies in order to position Wisconsin as the best state in the nation to live, work and raise a family. The items in this agenda represent some of the most important steps the Legislature and Executive Branch agencies can take to accomplish that goal.
