Senate Bill 1006 proposes the creation of a new statute, 84.1011, which mandates the Wisconsin Department of Transportation to designate and mark specific routes as memorial highways in honor of state troopers who have served the community. The bill outlines eight designated routes, each named after a fallen state trooper, including Trooper Donald C. Pederson, Trooper Gary G. Powless, Trooper Debbie M. McMenamin, Trooper Willie Schoenberger, Trooper Jorge Dimas, Trooper Trevor J. Casper, Trooper Anthony J. Borostowski, and Trooper Daniel Stainbrook. The markers will be erected and maintained only upon receiving sufficient contributions from interested parties, such as local governments, ensuring that no state funds will be used for these purposes.

The bill emphasizes the importance of community involvement in honoring these state troopers, as it requires contributions to cover the costs associated with the erection and maintenance of the memorial markers. Each designated route will serve as a lasting tribute to the sacrifices made by these individuals in the line of duty, fostering a sense of remembrance and respect within the communities they served.
