While the 2023 legislative session ended without passage of the Transition to Grass Pilot Program legislation, Clean Wisconsin’s advocacy for the “Grazing Bill” hasn’t stopped.
Last fall, Clean Wisconsin and our partners at the Dairy Business Association, Wisconsin Land and Water and the Nature Conservancy worked with Republican and Democratic state lawmakers to introduce legislation that creates a program to help farmers establish managed grazing systems on their land.
Wisconsinites want a healthy environment. They want a functioning state government where differences of opinion result in collaboration and compromise.
Managed grazing is a farming practice where livestock are systematically rotated through pastureland to optimize their nutrition and the land's health.
Wisconsin communities will retain the ability to adopt policies phasing out the use of dangerous fossil fuels, thanks to Gov. Evers’ veto of Senate Bill 49.
