Assembly Bill 322 proposes to designate the monarch butterfly as the official state butterfly of Wisconsin. To implement this change, the bill creates a new section in the statutes, specifically 1.10 (3) (w), which states, "The monarch butterfly is the state butterfly." This addition aims to recognize the significance of the monarch butterfly within the state's natural heritage.

Additionally, the bill amends the existing statute 1.10 (4) to update the list of state symbols included in the Wisconsin Blue Book. The amendment removes the word "and" before "herb" and adds "butterfly" to the list, ensuring that the monarch butterfly is officially recognized alongside other state symbols in the publication.
