The bill repeals the prohibition on local minimum wage ordinances, allowing cities, villages, towns, or counties to establish their own minimum wage laws.

  • Wis. Stat. § 104.001

    104.001  Statewide concern; uniformity.

    The entire section regarding statewide concern and the uniformity of minimum wage is removed.

  • Wis. Stat. § 104.001

    104.001(1)(1) The legislature finds that the provision of a minimum wage that is uniform throughout the state is a matter of statewide concern and that the enactment of a minimum wage ordinance by a city, village, town, or county would be logically inconsistent with, would defeat the purpose of, and would go against the spirit of this chapter. Therefore, this chapter shall be construed as an enactment of statewide concern for the purpose of providing a minimum wage that is uniform throughout the state.

    The legislative findings and purpose supporting a uniform minimum wage across the state are removed.

  • Wis. Stat. § 104.001

    104.001(2)(2) A city, village, town, or county may not enact and administer an ordinance establishing a minimum wage. Any city, village, town, or county minimum wage ordinance that is in effect on June 16, 2005, is void.

    The prohibition against local governments enacting minimum wage ordinances, including the voiding of any existing local ordinances as of June 16, 2005, is eliminated.
