AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Food Assistance Policy: Wisconsin lawmakers advanced AB1027, requiring DHS to compile and share FoodShare (SNAP) data with USDA, while the FoodShare “candy and soft drinks” restriction bill AB180 drew mixed votes in both chambers as DHS would need a federal waiver to limit purchases. Patient Care & Access: AB598 would let “patient representatives” help arrange hospital-to-nursing facility admissions for incapacitated people without guardianship petitions, and SB181/SB439/SB799 focus on EMS funding and parental access to minors’ health and court records. Public Health: Wisconsin measles cases are rising in southwest counties, with officials urging residents to check vaccination status and watch for symptoms. Animal Health & Safety: Chronic wasting disease was confirmed in deer farms in Portage County and elk in Crawford County, triggering quarantines and investigations. COVID-19 Accountability: New reporting highlights an FDA leader’s 2021 push for a study into COVID vaccine side effects, while Fauci again declined a second Senate panel appearance. Community Health: The Wisconsin Humane Society’s Racine Summer Match is tripling donations through Aug. 31 to support medical care and adoptions.
