Senate Bill 354 proposes the creation of a new statute, 16.245, which outlines the process for the state of Wisconsin to pursue liens on federal property when federal aid is withheld due to an executive order from the President or in violation of a court order. The bill mandates that the secretary of administration must first assess the amount of federal aid being withheld and report this information to the governor and the legislature within 60 days. The report must detail the expected deprivation of federal aid and identify federal properties in Wisconsin that could be subject to a lien.

Furthermore, the bill requires the attorney general to seek liens on the identified federal properties, with the total amount not exceeding the estimated federal aid loss. Once the state receives the withheld federal aid, all liens obtained must be released. This legislative measure aims to provide a mechanism for the state to recover financial losses resulting from federal actions that impede the flow of authorized aid.
