AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Big Tech Accountability: Wisconsin is set to receive up to $313 million from Meta’s $17.1 billion multistate settlement over Instagram and Facebook child-safety claims, with required daily time limits, nighttime access blocks, school-hour notification limits, and stronger age verification. Food Supply & Competition: U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin and Cory Booker urged the FTC to investigate Sysco’s proposed $29.1 billion acquisition of Jetro Restaurant Depot, warning the merger could reduce competition and raise costs for independent restaurants and small businesses. Public Health: A new alfalfa sprout outbreak tied to a Minneapolis grower has sickened 55 people across 15 states, with Wisconsin reporting 17 cases so far. Environmental Enforcement: An administrative law judge said a western Wisconsin CAFO permit for Ridge Breeze Dairy failed to adequately protect groundwater, ordering the permit sent back to the DNR for stronger compliance monitoring. Energy & Industry: Microsoft is objecting to a Wisconsin utility deal tied to data center power costs, arguing the agreement doesn’t go far enough to prevent ratepayer charges. Local Business Support: A free Small Business Clinic returns to Viroqua Thursday, offering one-on-one help on accounting, marketing, legal issues, and even AI for food and agricultural entrepreneurs. Manufacturing Expansion: American Companies broke ground on an 88,469-square-foot Hartford facility for DJS Manufacturing, targeting completion in September 2027.
