A bill authored by State Rep. Clint P. Moses in the Wisconsin Assembly seeks to support dairy producers by providing no-interest loans aimed at improving farm efficiency, animal care, and environmental management, according to the Wisconsin State Assembly.

According to the Wisconsin State Legislature's official website, the bill was described as follows: "establishing a dairy cattle innovation program. (FE)".

The following is our breakdown, based on the actual bill text, and may include interpretation to clarify its provisions.

In essence, the bill establishes a dairy cattle innovation program administered by the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation, which will provide no-interest loans to eligible milk producers. To qualify, applicants must have a dairy operation with between 50 and 714 producing cows, be located in Wisconsin, employ only individuals authorized to work in the state, not have open bankruptcy proceedings, and have had no regulatory enforcement actions within the past five years regarding environmental or safety violations. The funds are intended to enhance farm efficiencies, animal care, milk quality, and environmental management or to expand facilities and technology for dairy operations. Priority for loan awards will be given to applicants promising to create new skilled jobs, improve milk production practices, reduce environmental impact per gallon of milk produced, and enhance labor efficiency. The bill allows for WEDC to consult with the Department of Agriculture, Trade, and Consumer Protection to manage the program. The effective date is the day after publication or two days after the 2025 biennial budget act publication, whichever is later.

The bill was co-authored by Sen. Rob Stafsholt (Republican-10th District), Rep. Lindee Rae Brill (Republican-27th District), Rep. Robert Brooks (Republican-59th District), Rep. Tara Johnson (Democrat-96th District), and Rep. Rob Kreibich (Republican-28th District). It was co-sponsored by Sen. Jesse L. James (Republican-23rd District), Sen. Romaine Robert Quinn (Republican-25th District), and Sen. Patrick Testin (Republican-24th District), along with two other co-sponsors.

Clint P. Moses has co-authored or authored another 65 bills since the beginning of the 2025 session, with none of them being enacted.

Moses graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Stout in 1999 with a BA and again in 2001 from Northwestern College of Chiropractic with a BS.

Moses, a Republican, was elected to the Wisconsin State Assembly in 2025 to represent the state's 92nd Assembly district, replacing previous state representative Treig Pronschinske.

In Wisconsin, the legislative process starts when a senator, constituent, group, or agency proposes an idea for a bill. After drafting, the bill is introduced, numbered, and referred to a committee for review and public input. If approved, it moves through three readings and votes in both the Senate and Assembly. Once both chambers pass the same version, the bill goes to the governor, who can sign it, veto it, or let it become law without a signature. Only a small share of bills introduced each session ultimately become law. You can learn more about the Wisconsin legislative process here.
