Madison – State Representative Amy Loudenbeck (R-Clinton) issued the following statement after her bill, Assembly Bill 59 (AB 59) passed the Senate Floor, and now heads to Governor Walker to be signed into law.
“AB 59 updates statutory references for emergency medical technicians and first responders and aligns Wisconsin terminology with federal language and current practices. I became aware of Wisconsin using a different set of terms when working on a bill related to mobile integrated health and community emergency medical services. I am very pleased this bill has cleared the last legislative hurdle. Modernizing these definitions will make our state statutes and future legislation easier to understand.”
