MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Assembly Speaker Robin Vos says Wisconsin should get tougher on unemployed people who apply for jobs to meet work search requirements but skip out on the interview.
Business leaders Wednesday told Vos and Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu that the worker shortage problem has reached a breaking point.
Wisconsin Republicans last month reinstated a work search requirement for the unemployed, a move designed to get more people back into the workforce.
The Assembly was scheduled to vote next week on a bill ending the $300 payment and other federal enhancement programs.
