Joint Legislative Council
The Council's primary responsibility is to establish study
committees to examine major issues and problems identified by the
Legislature. The study committees appointed by the Council are made
up of Legislators and citizens who are interested in or
knowledgeable about the study topic. By using citizens on these
committees, the Legislature benefits from the knowledge and
expertise of Wisconsin's citizens. Citizens serving on Council
study committees not only help in developing public policy, but also
learn more about how their state government works. Study committees
do most of their work when the Legislature is in recess. The
Council reviews the legislation recommended by the study committees
and, if a majority of Council members (12) vote for introduction,
the legislation is sponsored by the Joint Legislative Council.
