78. Fabrication Laboratories Grant Program

  Section 9149 (1g)

This section creates nonstatutory language requiring the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation to allocate at least $500,000 in each year of the 2019-21 biennium for the purpose of awarding grants under a fabrication laboratory grant program substantially similar to the program originally created under 2015 Wisconsin Act 55.

I am vetoing this section because I object to the Legislature limiting the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation's authority. The fabrication laboratories program has been an innovative effort to expand the educational experiences of public school children across the state, but this is a policy more appropriately administered with other educational grant programs. If the corporation wishes to make such an allocation it can choose to do so on its own volition.

Sincerely,

Tony Evers

Governor
